ABSTRACT
Introduction: The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a valuable tool for interpreting
ventricular repolarization. This article aims to broaden the diagnostic scope

Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited disorder characterized by prolonged
QT intervals on the ECG and a heightened risk of developing polymorphic
ro
ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac death. This condition extends the
-p
APD and the QT interval[21].
Research has also shown that the Tp-e interval, the duration from the peak to the
re
end of the T wave, is frequently prolonged in LQTS patients[22]. Moreover,
lP
studies suggest that the Tpeak-to-end (Tp-e)/QT ratio may be a more reliable
indicator of torsades de pointes risk than the QTc interval or QT dispersion,
particularly in acquired forms of LQTS[23]. A Tp-e/QT ratio exceeding 0.28 has

the QT interval may appear normal. Key measures such as the Tpeak-to-end

interval, T-wave left slope, and T-wave's center of gravity (notably in the last 25%
of the T-wave) significantly aid diagnosis. Particularly in lead V6, these
parameters can distinguish between LQTS patients and healthy controls,
effectively identifying 83.33% of concealed LQTS cases[26].
There is also experimental and early evidence that this marker is also correlated
with increased risk in early repolarization[27,28] and short QT syndromes[25].

Coronary syndromes
The biphasic morphology reflects the moment when ST elevation is resolving due
to spontaneous coronary recanalization, but myocardial edema is significant
enough to invert T wave. This pattern has been described in various reports as
"pseudo-Wellens"[34–38]. This term is probably inappropriate as it implies that
the biphasic T wave has only one diagnosis and that differential diagnoses are
rare. This may prevent a broad clinical assessment necessary for the accurate
diagnosis and management of cardiac events. In addition, this article stresses
that no single alteration is entirely specific to any syndrome. For example,
Wellens' pattern is a differential diagnosis for virtually all negative primary T
waves described in this section.

In acute ischemia, the dynamics of T wave changes are complex and often
ro
misunderstood. A common misconception is that acute ongoing ischemia directly
causes negative T waves. However, the negativity of T wave is a consequence

of associated ST depression in the same leads[4]. It usually occurs when ongoing
ischemia is resolving or has subsided and can persist for a prolonged period. This

On the other hand, T-wave alterations that are not accompanied by these

and analysis of the T wave will assist in this differentiation.
