Short QT syndrome is a genetic disease of the electrical system of the heart. It consists of a constellation of signs and symptoms consisting of a short QT interval on an EKG (≤ 300 ms) that does not significantly change with heart rate tall and peaked T waves and a structurally normal heart. Short QT syndrome appears to be inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern and a few affected families have been identified.
