QT Measurement and Heart Rate Correction during Hypoglycemia: Is There a Bias?

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2010
Introduction. Several studies show that hypoglycemia causes QT interval prolongation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of QT measurement methodology, heart rate correction, and insulin types during hypoglycemia. Methods.

Drug induced QT interval prolongation

open access: yes, 2019
QT interval je elektrokardiografska manifestacija ventrikulske depolarizacije i repolarizacije posredovana ionskim kanalima čija je duljina određena dobi, spolom i frekvencijom srca, a kao referentne vrijednosti uzimaju se duljine 360-390 ms kod ...

Identification of patients at-risk of QT interval prolongation during medication reviews: a missed opportunity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The prolongation of the QT interval is a relatively rare but serious adverse drug reaction. It can lead to torsade de pointes, which is potentially life-threatening.

[Drug induced QT prolongation]

open access: yes, 2008
Prolongation of the ventricular repolarisation manifests itself as a prolongation of the QT intervall on the surface ECG and represents a major risk for a special form of ventricular tachycardia called "torsades de pointes". Torsades de pointes are often

Absence of relevant QT interval prolongation in not critically ill COVID-19 patients

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
SARS-CoV-2 is a rapidly evolving pandemic causing great morbimortality. Medical therapy with hydroxicloroquine, azitromycin and protease inhibitors is being empirically used, with reported data of QTc interval prolongation.

Drug- and non-drug-associated QT interval prolongation

open access: yes, 2010
Sudden cardiac death is among the most common causes of cardiovascular death in developed countries. The majority of sudden cardiac deaths are caused by acute ventricular arrhythmia following repolarization disturbances.

Drug-induced QT interval prolongation and adverse cardiac events: a scoping review

open access: yes, 2020
QT interval prolongation is commonly used a surrogate marker for arrhythmogenic and torsadogenic risk, however the relationship between medications associated with QT prolongation, drug-induced QT-prolongation, and adverse cardiac outcomes, remains ...
