You have been referred to this service by your doctor either because there is a history in your family of heart conditions that may be inherited (runs in families), or because you have been having symptoms that may be related to a heart condition. In some cases you may already have been diagnosed with a heart muscle condition (cardiomyopathy) or electrical disorder (eg Long QT syndrome or Brugada syndrome) and we have been asked to advise on your treatment. If you have a family history of sudden cardiac death and want to be screened you can ask your GP for a referral. If you need any further information you can call the centre on 01 414 3058.
