Automated T-wave morphology analysis accurately discriminates patients with pathogenic LQTS mutations from control subjects and between the 2 most common LQTS subtypes. Mutation carriers without baseline QTc prolongation were also identified. This may be a useful tool for screening families of LQTS patients, particularly when the QTc interval is subthreshold and genetic testing is unavailable.

Repolarization duration as measured by JTpkc is not positively associated with dispersion of repolarization as measured by TpTe or QTd. Dispersion of repolarization may not be a critical mechanistic link between QTc prolongation and TdP.
