(FIT)-Module 1, Workshop 1: Electrocardiographic/Electrophysiologic Correlation-London Case 1 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Dr. Barry London, Director of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Iowa, presents a workshop on electrocardiographic electrophysiology correlations, discussing 10 cases. He introduces a 54-year-old patient, CV, who has no symptoms but has inherited a KCNQ1 mutation associated with Long QT syndrome, found during genetic testing. This mutation, known in multiple Long QT syndrome cases, links to a Long QT syndrome family history. Dr. London reviews CV's electrocardiogram pre- and post-stress test, prompting questions about diagnosis, stress test utility, clinical presentation, and management decisions in the context of incomplete penetrance.
