Notes

  • Introduction: Long QT syndrome (LQTS) mutation carriers have elevated the risk of cardiac events even in the absence of QTc prolongation; however, mutation penetrance in patients with normal QTc may be reflected in abnormal T-wave shape, particularly in KCNH2 mutation carriers. We aimed to assess whether the magnitude of a three-dimensional T-wave vector (TwVM) will identify KCNH2-mutation carriers with normal QTc at risk for cardiac events. Methods: Adult LQT2 patients with QTc < 460 ms in men and <470 ms in women (n = 113, age 42 ± 16 years, 43% male) were compared with genotype-negative family members (n = 1007). The TwVM was calculated using T-wave amplitudes in leads V6, II, and V2 as the square root of (TV62 + TII2 + (0.5*TV2)2). Cox regression analysis adjusted for gender and time-dependent beta-blocker use was performed to assess cardiac event (CE) risk, defined as syncope, aborted cardiac arrest, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy, or sudden death. Results: Dichotomized by median of 0.30 mV, lower TwVM was associated with elevated CE risk compared to those with high TwVM (HR = 2.95, 95% CI, 1.25-6.98, P =.014) and also remained significant after including sex and time-dependent beta-blocker usage in the Cox regression analysis (HR = 2.64, 95% CI, 1.64-4.24, P <.001). However, these associations were found only in women but not in men who had low event rates. Conclusion: T-wave morphology quantified as repolarization vector magnitude using T-wave amplitudes retrieved from standard 12-lead electrocardiogram predicts cardiac events risk in LQT2 women and appears useful for risk stratification of KCNH2-mutation carriers without QTc prolongation.
