Genetic Sources of Variability of the Adaptation of the Ventricular Repolarisation (Generepol)

Identification of the Genetic Sources of Variability of the Adaptation of the Ventricular Repolarisation at a Pharmacological and Physiological Stimulus in an Apparently Normal Population

The main objective is to research for genetic factors involved in the extreme modifications of the QT interval of the electrocardiogram in answer to a pharmacological stimulation (sotalol) and physiological stimulation in the apparently normal general population.

The phenotypic characterization, based on the ventricular repolarisation dynamics will be used aiming at term of the predictive genetic factors of the acquired long QT syndrome
