The patient did not have a positive family history of epilepsy, sudden cardiac death (SCD) or recurrent syncope. There are many ways to estimate the QTc ( ie, I illustrate a user-friendly method I developed and have used for decades in the October 25, 2023 post). Learning Points: LQTS can have normal QTc.
