Variations in certain genomic sequences useful as genetic markers of Sudden Cardiac Death ("SCD") or Sudden Cardiac Arrest ("SCA") risk are described. Novel diagnostic kits, DNA microarrays, and methods employing these genetic markers are used in assessing the risk of SCD or SCA. Methods of distinguishing patients having an increased susceptibility to SCD or SCA, through use of these markers, alone or in combination with other markers, are also provided. Further, methods of detecting a polymorphism associated with SCD or SCA are taught. |
