https://doi.org/10.51523/2708-6011.2009-6-4-22

Abstract

In the article, there is a survey of modern literature as for problem of etiology, classification, pathogenesis and major clinical manifestations of long QT syndrome in children. The electrocardiographyc criteria for diagnosis of the syndrome, features of syncopic states and the possible ways of life-threatening arrhythmias prophylaxis in children are discussed.
