QT Interval Syndrome

QT Interval Syndrome, often called Long QT Syndrome, is a condition affecting the heart's electrical system. It causes abnormal timing in the heart's electrical signals, leading to a longer-than-normal period between the heart's beats. This can increase the risk of irregular heart rhythms, fainting, or even sudden cardiac arrest. Some people are born with it (genetic), while it can also result from certain medications or health issues. Managing the condition may involve medications, lifestyle adjustments, or medical devices to prevent serious complications. Early diagnosis and proper care are important for those affected.
