Primary Outcome(s)
Primary end point(s): The main criterion is defined as the modification of the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) using the Fridericia equation after 6 weeks of treatment.
Secondary Objective: To assess the effect of Omacor® on:
- the T wave morphology,
- the standard ECG parameters: RR interval, QRS complex, PR interval,
- the relationship between the QTc Fridericia interval and the erythrocyte cellular membrane and cheek cells concentration in PUFAs.
Main Objective: To assess the effect of Omacor on the electrocardiographic QTc Fridericia interval in LQT3 patients (cardiac sodium channel gene SCN5A mutation leading to congenital long-QT syndrome).
