Effects of Neostigmine and Sugammadex for Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade on QT Dispersion Under Propofol Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]
Cardiology and Therapy, 2018 Introduction Reversal of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent neostigmine is associated with QT prolongation under general anesthesia. To clarify the effects of neostigmine and sugammadex on hemodynamic status, the QT interval and QT dispersion ...

QT Dispersion and Drug-Induced Torsade de Pointes. [PDF]
Cureus, 2021 Background Amiodarone causes less drug-induced torsade de pointes (TdP) compared to other class III antiarrhythmics. Two theories proposed for this finding include that amiodarone has less repolarization heterogeneity, and/or decreases early after ...

Myocardial bridging is associated with exercise-induced ventricular arrhythmia and increases in QT dispersion. [PDF]
Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol, 2018 A myocardial bridge (MB) has been associated with ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death during exercise. QT dispersion (QTd) is a measure of abnormal repolarization and may predict ventricular arrhythmia.

Increased QT Dispersion Is Linked to Worse Outcomes in Patients Hospitalized for Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020 Background The incidence and mortality of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains high, but predicting outcomes is challenging. Being able to better assess prognosis of hospitalized patients after return of spontaneous circulation would enable ...

Prolonged P-Wave and QT Dispersion in Children with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Remission. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2017 Objectives. Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) with unclear underlying aetiologies. Severe cardiac arrhythmias have been emphasised in a few studies on adult IBD patients.

Holter Monitor QT Dispersion and QTc‐Dispersion in Pediatric Long QT Syndrome and Development of a Diagnostic and Arrhythmia Risk Prediction Model [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular DiseaseBackground Holter monitors can provide temporal QT analysis, allowing for calculation of QT dispersion and corrected QT dispersion over time. We describe the results of the QT dispersion and corrected QT dispersion over a 24‐hour period in pediatric ...

P-wave and QT dispersion in patients with conversion disorder. [PDF]
Ther Clin Risk Manag, 2015 Objective The aim of this study was to investigate QT dispersion (QTd), which is the noninvasive marker of ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death, and P-wave dispersion, which is the noninvasive marker of atrial arrhythmia, in patients with ...
