  2. QT interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QT_interval

    The dimensionally correct form of Bazett's formula is: = where QTc B is the QT interval corrected for heart rate, and RR is the interval from the onset of one QRS complex to the onset of the next QRS complex. This dimensionally correct formula returns the QTc in the same units as QT, generally milliseconds.

  3. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome - Wikipedia

    The cardiac features of JLNS can be diagnosed by measuring the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) on a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). The QTc is less than 450 ms in 95% of normal males, and less than 460 ms in 95% of normal females. In those with Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome the QTc is typically greater than 500 ms. [8]

  4. Long QT syndrome - Wikipedia

    The QTc is less than 450 ms in 95% of normal males, and less than 460 ms in 95% of normal females. LQTS is suggested if the QTc is longer than these cutoffs. However, as 5% of normal people also fall into this category, some suggest cutoffs of 470 and 480 ms for males and females respectively, corresponding with the 99th centiles of normal values.

  5. Romano–Ward syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romano–Ward_syndrome

    Romano–Ward syndrome is principally diagnosed by measuring the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) on a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). Romano–Ward syndrome is associated with a prolonged QTc, although in some genetically proven cases of Romano–Ward syndrome this prolongation can be hidden, known as concealed Long QT syndrome. [13]

  6. Drug-induced QT prolongation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug-induced_QT_prolongation

    Class III antiarrhythmic drugs are potassium channel blockers that cause QT prolongation and are associated with TdP. Amiodarone. Amiodarone works in many ways. It blocks sodium, potassium, and calcium channels, as well as alpha and beta adrenergic receptors. Because of its multiple actions, amiodarone causes QT prolongation but TdP is rarely ...

  7. Dofetilide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dofetilide

    Prior to administration of the first dose, the corrected QT (QTc) must be determined. If the QTc is greater than 440 msec (or 500 msec in patients with ventricular conduction abnormalities), dofetilide is contraindicated. If heart rate is less than 60 bpm, the uncorrected QT interval should be used. After each subsequent dose of dofetilide, QTc ...

    The company has an associated YouTube channel where Baker narrates over videos presenting educational charts. Baker has said the revenue between physical chart sales and the channel is "about 50/50." In a Global News segment covering UsefulCharts, a video detailing the history of Vancouver was highlighted.
