Extended Apple Watch Monitoring of Cardiac Arythmias

Will the Apple Watch at some point include cardiac monitoring for a “prolonged QT interval.”

The cardiac QT interval is measurable on a standard medical office or hospital-adminstered EKG, but a prolonged interval, such as in Long QT Syndrome, is an aryhthmia that can trigger chaotic heartbeats, fainting, seizures, and in rare cases, sudden death.

A study from Mark Strit et al. from Bordeaux University in France indicates it might be possible. Unfortunately this forum does not let me include a direct link to it.
