Significant Prolongation of QTc-Interval in Overweight-Obese Hypertensive Patients Does Not Relate to the Obesity as a Risk Factor
Abstract: The duration of QT interval in the electrocardiograph record represents the ventricular repolarization. It is prolonged in women, ageing and using certain medications. In hypertensive patients, prolongation of QT interval is associated with cardiac risk factors and/or the complications of hypertension. This study aimed to measure the uncorrected (QT) and corrected (QTc) intervals using different formulas in overweight-obese patients with chronic hypertension. A total number of 25 healthy subjects and …
