Investigation of the Proarrhythmic Effects of Antidepressants according to QT Interval, QT Dispersion and T Wave Peak-to-End Interval in the Clinical Setting
2019
Objective
Some antidepressants have been implicated as risk factors for QT prolongation, which is a predictor of sudden cardiac death. However, the QT interval is considered an imperfect biomarker for proarrhythmic risk. Therefore, we reevaluated the risk of sudden cardiac death due to antidepressants using improved methods, namely, QT dispersion (QTD), T wave peak-to-end interval (Tp-e), and Tp-e/QT ratio.
