- W2894922834 abstract "Forty per cent (40%) of sudden unexpected natural deaths in people under 35 years of age are associated with a negative autopsy, and the cardiac ion channelopathies are the prime suspects in such cases. Long QT syndrome (LQTS), Brugada syndrome (BrS) and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) are the most commonly identified with genetic testing. The cellular action potential driving the heart cycle is shaped by a specific series of depolarising and repolarising ion currents mediated by ion channels. Alterations in any of these currents, and in the availability of intracellular free calcium, leaves the myocardium vulnerable to polymorphic ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation. Each channelopathy has its own electrocardiogram (ECG) signature, typical mode of presentation, and most commonly related gene. Long QT type 1 (gene, KCNQ1) and CPVT (gene, RyR2) typically present with cardiac events (ie syncope or cardiac arrest) during or immediately after exercise in young males; long QT type 2 (gene, KCNH2) after startle or during the night in adult females-particularly early post-partum, and long QT type 3 and Brugada syndrome (gene, SCN5A) during the night in young adult males. They are commonly misdiagnosed as seizure disorders. Fever-triggered cardiac events should also raise the suspicion of BrS. This review summarises genetics, cellular mechanisms, risk stratification and treatments. Beta blockers are the mainstay of treatment for long QT syndrome and CPVT, and flecainide is remarkably effective in CPVT. Brugada syndrome is genetically a more complex disease than the others, and risk stratification and management is more difficult." @default.
