Abstract in brief

  • T Wave Alternans (TWA) refers to a fluctuation in the T wave portion of the ECG, indicating electrical instability in the heart that can lead to arrhythmias.
  • Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) is a condition characterized by a prolonged QT interval on the ECG, which increases the risk of dangerous irregular heartbeats and sudden cardiac events.
  • The relationship between T Wave Alternans and Long QT Syndrome is important because TWA can serve as a marker for identifying patients at higher risk of arrhythmias in those with LQTS.]
