Overview

Physical examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually remarkable for hearing loss in Jervell and Lang-Nielsen (JLN) syndrome. Heart murmur due to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or valvular defect may be heard.

Physical Examination

Physical examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually remarkable for hearing loss in Jervell and Lang-Nielsen (JLN) syndrome. Heart murmur due to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or valvular defect may be heard.

Appearance of the Patient

Patients with long QT syndrome usually appear normal.

Vital Signs

Bradycardia with regular pulse due to aging may be seen.

Skin

Skin examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually normal.

HEENT

Hearing loss (congenital deafness), may be seen in Jervell and Lang-Nielsen (JLN) syndrome.

Neck

Neck examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually normal.

Lungs

Pulmonary examination of patients with Long QT syndrome is usually normal.

Heart

Heart murmur due to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or valvular defect may be heard.

Abdomen

Abdominal examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually normal.

Back

Back examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually normal.

Genitourinary

Genitourinary examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually normal.

Neuromuscular

Neuromuscular examination of patients with long QT syndrome is usually normal.

Extremities

Short stature and scoliosis are seen in LQT7 (Andersen syndrome).
