Some argue that the QT interval should be measured only by cardiologists, but this suggestion is impractical. In light of the number of medications that could prolong the QT interval, other health care practitioners, especially internists, family practitioners, and psychiatrists, should either learn ...
In terms of everyday functioning, patients with long QT syndrome should avoid drugs that prolong QT interval and have their electrolyte abnormalities corrected. Participation of long QT syndrome patients in competitive sports is still a matter of debate among the experts. The second part of the ...
Following an abrupt change in heart rate (HR), QT adaptation is achieved within a delayed time frame. The exclusion of electrocardiograms (ECGs) showing rapid HR changes influences the level of a drug-induced QT prolongation. Continuous 12-lead ECG-Holter monitoring was performed in 31 healthy ...
cessation of all QT-prolonging medications Evidence regarding which drugs cause torsades is extremely murky. In some cases it seems that drugs have been incorrectly maligned (e.g. azithromycin, olanzapine). Which drugs prolong QT the most?
The Covenant Setting - This is what Moses said to all of Israel in the Transjordanian wilderness, the arid rift valley opposite Suph, between Paran
红外热成像运用光电技术检测物体热辐射的红外线特定波段信号,将该信号转换成可供人类视觉分辨的图像和图形,并可以进一步计算出温度值。红外热成像技术使人类超越了视觉障碍,由此人们可以“看到”物体表面的温度分布状况。根据以上关于红外热成像技术的描述,下列说法正确的是()。
Azithromycin is one of the most frequently prescribed antibiotics. That drug is known to potentially prolong the QT interval which can be related to heart arrhythmias. So one should probably check an EKG to make sure the QT interval is not a problem. That said, I do not recall ever having...
For this reason, the citizens of the area, decided to protect the artwork by implementing a physical barrier, i.e., a plexiglass transparent panel, with the intention of preserving it and trying to prolong its durability. From a social point of view, this solution represents a turning point...
Delays to the clinical decision-making process have been found to prolong hospital stays exacerbating the problem further [4,5]. The literature suggests the best approach to prevent functional loss amongst older adults is to provide a comprehensive multidisciplinary integrated response [6]. For the ...
Many antiarrhythmic drugs, psychiatric drugs, anti-infectives, and antihistamines prolong the QT interval and pose a risk of TdeP. Importantly, QT prolongation does not appear to be a class effect; that is, there can be a marked variation in the magnitude of QT effect among drugs with otherwi...
