Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES I Evaluate electrocardiographic parameters including QT and PR intervals and QRS morphologyduration across clinical stages in patients with Rett syndrome

II Characterize abnormalities of cardiac conduction and repolarization III Assess arrhythmias heart rate variability and autonomic nervous system function in these patients using 24-hour Holter monitoring

IV Record events believed to represent seizures with video electroencephalogram EEG and polygraph monitoring in patients who have more than 1 clinical seizure every 5 days

V Characterize these events with respect to clinical manifestations EEG correlates and other physiologic data

VI Determine the frequency of seizures vs events without electrographic correlates in these patients

VII Determine whether Rett syndrome patients have characteristic or unique types of seizures andor an epileptic syndrome
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE Patients receive an electrocardiogram at baseline and every 6 months for 3 years Clinical stage II patients undergo 24-hour Holter monitoring on the same schedule age-matched controls are tested once

A group of patients with more than 1 seizure or possible seizure every 5 days undergo 5-day continuous electroencephalogrampolygraphicvideo monitoring with respiratory effort assessment end tidal carbon dioxide and oxygen saturation levels and a seizure log
