Overview
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for Andersen-Tawil syndrome. But when a patient with positive KCNJ2 mutation follow the patient with ECG and holter monitoring.
Screening
- There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for Andersen-Tawil syndrome.
- But when a patient with positive KCNJ2 mutation and have no symptoms in Andersen-Tawil syndrome yearly screening with the following should be considered:

- 24-hour Holter monitoring
