Protease Inhibitor–Associated QT Interval Prolongation

Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2011
Objective: To evaluate the literature on protease inhibitor (PI)-associated QT interval prolongation and risk for torsade de pointes in patients infected by HIV. Data Sources: Primary literature was identified through MEDLINE (1950-August 2011) and EMBASE (1980-August 2011), using the following search terms: antiretroviral agents, HIV, protease ...

Prolonged QT interval and cocaine use

Journal of Electrocardiology, 1997
Cardiovascular consequences of cocaine use are well known, and surveillance for them is common practice in the routine care of cocaine abusers. However, the cardiac electrical abnormalities that arise, although studied in animal experiments, lack correlation with human reports.

Antipsychotic Drugs and QT Interval Prolongation

Psychiatric Quarterly, 2003
The QTc prolongation by antipsychotic drugs is of major concern, especially in light of the data indicating an increased risk of sudden death in psychiatric patients taking these drugs. Sudden death in psychiatric patients could be partially attributed to drug-induced torsades de pointes and for this reason careful evaluation of QTc prolonging ...

QT-Interval Prolongation Produced by Probucol

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1981
To the Editor. —Probucol (4,4′-[(1-methylethylidene) bis (thio)] bis [2,6-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl) phenol]) is a recently introduced drug for the lowering of serum cholesterol levels in familial hypercholesterolemia type II. 1,2 Side effects are considered slight, and no ECG abnormalities have been reported in humans receiving probucol. 2,3 This article

Screening lead compounds for QT interval prolongation

Drug Discovery Today, 2001
The late detection of cardiotoxic side effects, such as QT prolongation, induced by compounds of pharmacological interest can dramatically impede drug discovery and development projects, and consequently increase their cost. The launch of new drugs with undetected cardiotoxic side effects could have hazardous consequences and could trigger lethal ...

Electroencephalography laboratory diagnosis of prolonged QT interval

Annals of Neurology, 1990
AbstractPatients with prolongation of the QT interval are at risk for significant neurological morbidity and mortality secondary to ventricular tachyarrhythmias. These patients frequently undergo electroencephalographic (EEG) examination to evaluate episodes of loss of consciousness, which may be associated with convulsions. Electrocardiogram recording

Electrocardiographic implications of the prolonged QT interval

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2013
The QT interval measures the time from the start of the QRS complex to the end of the T wave. Prolongation of the QT interval may lead to malignant ventricular tachydysrhythmias, including torsades de pointes. Causes of QT prolongation include congenital abnormalities of the sodium or potassium channel, electrolyte abnormalities, and medications ...

Low-Energy Diets and Prolonged QT Intervals

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1987
To the Editor.— In a recent review entitled "Prolonged QT-Interval Syndromes," 1 the author indicates that "prolongation of the QT interval, malignant ventricular arrhythmias, and unexpected sudden death have been reported in patients who have lost considerable weight on the very-low-energy liquid protein diets." Dr Moss states that "sustained use of ...
