[Effect of tests with dosed physical load on sinus node function and repolarization in children with hereditary long
Abstract:
The study is devoted to assessment of effect of physical effort of sinus rhythm rate and the state of the process of repolarization in children with 1 and 2 molecular-genetic variants of the long QT syndrome (LQT). We have shown that LQT1 is characterized by inadequate increment of heart rate (HR) and substantial increase of QTc interval during exercise. In LQT2 compared with control reduction of HR increment also takes place while shortening of QTc interval is more pronounced. Delta QTc<0 is an important differential diagnostic criterion in patients with LQT1 and LQT2. Variatins in T wave morphology in LQT1 and LQT2 diminish at the background of physical exercise. The use of β-blockers influences relationship between length of QT interval and HR in patients with LQT but does not eliminate distinction from a group of patients with analogous variant of the syndrome not taking these drugs.

Exercise Stress Test
Exercise stress testing, commonly known as a treadmill test, is a noninvasive procedure used to evaluate cardiovascular function and diagnose heart conditions.
Definition
An exercise stress test measures the heart's response to exertion using a treadmill or stationary bicycle. Chest electrodes record the heart's electrical activity through an ECG, and blood pressure is monitored regularly.
Purposes
ECG Interpretation of Arrhythmias I: Sinus Arrhythmias
Types of Arrhythmias
Sinus Node Arrhythmias
Sinus Bradycardia: Originating from the sinoatrial (SA) node, sinus bradycardia involves slower impulses, resulting in a heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute (bpm). Causes include sleep, vagal stimulation, beta-blockers, hypothyroidism, and...
