1 Introduction The hereditary long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetic cardiac disorder characterized by prolonged ventricular repolarization and associated with ventricular arrhythmia that may cause syncope and sudden cardiac death (Goldenberg and Moss 2008). The two most common types of LQTS are LQT1 and LQT2. LQT1 is caused by mutations in the KCNQ1 gene that encodes Kv7.1—the pore-forming α-subunit of a voltage-gated potassium channel.
