Comparison of Four Rate-Correction Algorisms for the Ventricular Repolarization Period in Assessing Net Effects of IKr Blockers in Dogs

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
The utility of corrected and uncorrected QT interval changes for assessing net repolarization delay by IKr (a rapid component of delayed rectifier K+ currents) blockers was assessed in halothane-anesthetized dogs using the electrocardiogram and ...
