When the U Wave Tells the Story: Andersen-Tawil Syndrome Unmasked
None:
A 26-year-old woman with recurrent syncope was diagnosed with Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) following abnormal electrocardiographic (ECG) findings. Her history of ventricular arrhythmias and prominent U waves on ECG led to genetic testing, which identified a KCNJ2 mutation. This case underscores the importance of recognizing ATS-specific ECG patterns, including broad U waves, in diagnosing arrhythmias. Following medication adjustments, her symptoms improved, highlighting the significance of tailored treatment for ATS-associated arrhythmias.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.

Assessment of apical radial pulse
The A-R pulse assessment involves simultaneous evaluation of the apical and radial pulses. When the apical and radial pulse rates vary, this assessment helps identify a pulse deficit.
