Effect of QT interval-prolonging drugs taken in pregnancy on the neonatal QT interval

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Acquired QT interval prolongations due to drug side effects can result in detrimental arrhythmia. Maternal use of placenta-permeable drugs may lead to fetal exposure, thus leading to an increased risk of neonatal QT prolongation and ...
