The Equine Cardiac Group is developing diagnostic tools for long QT syndrome in horses, a condition that can lead to sudden death. The project aims to identify genetic factors and improve safety in equine sports by screening horses for this cardiac condition.
The Equine Cardiac Group at the University of Copenhagen has established a platform for diagnosing long QT syndrome (LQTS) in horses.
In men, this condition is a cause of severe ventricular arrhythmias leading to death in some cases.
The pathophysiological mechanism behind this disturbance of the cardiac rhythm is a delayed repolarisation often associated with reduced function of voltage gated potassium (K-) channels. LQTS is one of the cardiac causes of sudden death in athletes.
