Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

1. Determine the accuracy of repeated QT interval measurements using Fitbit-derived ECGs in patients with Long QT syndrome compared with the current standard (12-lead ECG and ambulatory monitors)

Time frame
From enrollment to 3 months
2

2. Establish intra-patient QT variability from weekly Fitbit-ECGs and frequency of measurements over 500ms.

Time frame
From enrollment to 3 months

Secondary outcomes

1

1. Establish the utility of wearable devices for determining symptom aetiology in LQTS.

Time frame
From enrollment to 3 months
2

2. Develop pipelines for the analysis of ECG data collected remotely including use of in-house QT automated algorithms for future machine learning applications.

Time frame
From enrollment to 3 months
