LQT3 Less Aggressive Than Thought?

My family and I are participating in an international study about the LQT3 type of long-QT syndrome. Until now, LQT3 is considered to be the most lethal form and the less treatable with Beta blockers.

Usually, people with LQT3 are advised to have a defibrillator implanted, even when they show no symptoms.

Recently, I was talking to one of the authors of the study. The first results now indicate that LQT3 is less aggressive than thought.

I am very glad this clinical study is being made. I alyways had the impression LQT3 was treated as an orphan by science. I hope the final results will help to tailor therapy even better.
