Explanation:
this is most likely a typo for LKS (esp. if it was lower case perhaps?), so, systolic function of left ventricle (levé komory srdeční)

IKs


Explanation:
Zkratka stejná v angličtině: I se spodním indexem Ks
systolic function IKs - tok iontů (I) draslíku (K) pomalý (s)
http://imaging.onlinejacc.org/content/jimg/8/5/501.full.pdf

The most commonly affected ion channels are the slow potassium channel, IKs (KCNQ1 gene/LQT1), and the rapid potassium channel, IKr (KCNH2 gene/LQT2).
and
However, to the best of our knowledge, comprehensive and detailed assessments of systolic and diastolic
function linked to specific ion channel dysfunction have not been performed in LQTS patients previously. Different types of LQTS exist; LQT1 is characterized by dysfunction of the slow potassium channel (IKs) (KCNQ1 mutations) (2), whereas LQT2 is characterized by dysfunction of the rapid potassium channel (IKr) (KCNH2 mutations) (1)

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you. I came across this as well but in this context the typo (LKS) is more likely, I think.
