QT interval measurement: evaluation of automatic QTc measurement and new simple method to calculate and interpret corrected QT interval.
BACKGROUND Assessment of repolarization duration is often recommended to avoid administration of QT-prolonging drugs in patients with prolonged QTc interval, a frequent situation in the postoperative period. Bazett QT correction inappropriately increases QTc when heart rate is increased, and the use of the Fridericia formula may avoid a falsely prolonged QTc interval. The authors assessed autom...
متن کاملQT Interval in Pregnant and Non-pregnant Women
INTRODUCTION Prolongation of QT interval might result in dangerous cardiac arrhythmias, including Torsades de Pointes (TdP), consequently leading to syncope or death. A limited number of studies carried out in this respect to date have shown that QT interval might increase during pregnancy. On the other hand, it has been shown that each pregnancy might result in an increase in the risk of cardi...
متن کاملCardiac Troponin T Response during High-Intensity Competition and its Correlation with the Corrected QT Interval among the Trained Athletes
Introduction: It is highly crucial to develop novel strategies in order to further enhance the monitoring of sudden cardiac arrest in athletes and establish standard medical care procedures to control monitoring and treatment costs. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of a high-intensity competition on cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and its correlation with the corrected QT interv...
متن کاملChanges in the corrected QT interval and corrected QT dispersion during haemodialysis.
The link between increased QT dispersion and cardiac death in subjects with diabetes and arterial disease is well recognised. Corrected QT dispersion was studied in subjects with end stage renal failure on haemodialysis. Thirty one stable, chronic subjects on haemodialysis had 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) taken before and after a single haemodialysis session. The QT interval was measured m...
متن کاملCorrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation and syncope associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia.
An adolescent presented with exercise-associated syncope and electrocardiographic corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation. Pseudohypoparathyroidism-induced hypocalcemia was diagnosed. The QTc (485 to 505 milliseconds) shortened during normalization of calcium levels, and syncope has not reoccurred.
