Carbon monoxide poisoning increases Tpeak–Tend dispersion and QTc dispersion
OBJECTIVES Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning leads to cardiac dysrhythmia. Increased heterogeneity in ventricular repolarisation on electrocardiogram (ECG) shows an increased risk of arrhythmia. A number of parameters are used to evaluate ventricular repolarisation heterogeneity on ECG. The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of acute CO poisoning on indirect parameters of ventricular re...
متن کاملPotassium removal increases the QTc interval dispersion during hemodialysis.
This study was planned to clarify the mechanism(s) by which hemodialysis increases the QTc dispersion, a marker of risk of ventricular arrhythmias. To this aim, 10 uremic patients, without any relevant heart diseases, underwent two different types of hemodialysis schedules. In the first, 1 h of isolated high rate ultrafiltration preceded the standard diffusive procedure. In the second, during t...
متن کاملQTc dispersion, hyperglycemia, and hyperinsulinemia.
and Hyperinsulinemia To the Editor: QTc dispersion is an important predictor of cardiac mortality. In the Rotterdam Study,1 persons in the highest tertile (.60 ms) relative to the lowest tertile (,39 ms) of QTc dispersion had a 2-fold risk of cardiac death. The Rotterdam Study also confirms that QTc dispersion is larger in diabetic than in nondiabetic persons. QTc duration and QTc dispersion ar...
متن کاملDRUGS AND QTc INTERVAL DISPERSION
The measure of delayed ventricular repolarization most frequently used clinically is the ability of the new chemical entity to prolong the QTc interval on surface electrocardiogram. Intramyocardial dispersion of repolarization appears to play a more important role both in electrical stability of the ventricles and in arrhythmogenesis. The potential importance of myocardial dispersion of refract...
متن کاملEffect of Average Annual Mean Serum Ferritin Levels on QTc Interval and QTc Dispersion in Beta-Thalassemia Major
Background There is evidence indicating impaired cardiomyocytic contractility, delayed electrical conduction and increased electrophysiological heterogeneities due to iron toxicity in beta-thalassemia major patients. In the present study, we compared the electrocardiographic and echocardiographic features of beta-thalassemia major patients with a healthy control group. Materials and Methods ...
