Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Adverse Cardiac Events on patients with genotype positive LQT1 who have a normal EKG and absence of symptoms, but a molecular confirmation of LQT1.
Time Frame: Enrollment is expected to take approximately 5 years. The patients will be followed until they are no longer cared for by a pediatric cardiology facility (typically post-college) or approximately 21 years of age.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Adverse Cardiac Events on patients with both phenotype and genotype positive.
