摘要：

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) have been a successful adjunct to the management of arrhythmias in patients with Long QT syndrome (LQTS). In two patients, interactions between LQTS and the ICD were diagnosed and corrected. Oversensing of T waves was confirmed in the first, while in the second, the arrhythmia disappeared when T wave abnormalities improved after cessation of H-2 blocker therapy. In patients with LQTS and an ICD, T wave oversensing should be considered. interventions that may have an adverse effect on repolarization should be avoided.
