A single-dose, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and positive-controlled, three-period crossover study was conducted to evaluate the effect of peginesatide injection on QT interval in healthy adults. Subjects received single doses of placebo, peginesatide injection 0.1 mg/kg intravenous, or moxifloxacin 400 mg during three treatment periods, separated by 14-day washout intervals. ECG recording...
متن کاملDetermining the effects of adrenaline and desflurane on QTc interval.
We read with great interest the article by Bestas et al1 entitled “The effect of adrenaline on desflurane-induced prolonged QTc interval: a randomized double-blind trial”, which is published in the current issue of European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences. The Authors1 investigated the effect of adrenaline on desflurane-induced prolonged corrected QT (QTc) interval. They mention...
