Predictive Analytics for Identification of Patients at Risk for QT Interval Prolongation – A Systematic Review [PDF]
Prolongation of the heart rate‐corrected QT (QTc) interval increases the risk for torsades de pointes (TdP), a potentially fatal arrhythmia. The likelihood of TdP is higher in patients with risk factors, which include female sex, older age, heart failure
