BACKGROUND: Drug-induced QT prolongation after successful inpatient loading of class III antiarrhythmics may occur during routine outpatient care. Insertable cardiac monitors offer continuous signals but are limited by single-lead configuration. We h...
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) presents a group of inheritable channelopathies with prolonged ventricular repolarization, leading to syncope, ventricular tachycardia, and sudden death. Differentiating LQTS genotypes is crucial for targeted management and tr...
OBJECTIVE: To test whether an artificial intelligence (AI) deep neural network (DNN)-derived analysis of the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) can distinguish patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS) from those with acquired QT prolongation.
BACKGROUND: Prediction of drug-induced long QT syndrome (diLQTS) is of critical importance given its association with torsades de pointes. There is no reliable method for the outpatient prediction of diLQTS.

Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterized by a prolonged QT-interval on an electrocardiogram (ECG). An abnormal prolongation in the QT-interval increases the risk for fatal arrhythmias. Genetic variants in several different cardiac ion chan...
In clinical practice, many drug therapies are associated with prolongation of the QT interval. In literature, estimation of the risk of prescribing drug-induced QT prolongation is mainly executed by means of logistic regression; only one paper report...
BACKGROUND: Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a rare heart disease caused by various underlying mutations. Most general cardiologists do not routinely see patients with congenital LQTS and may not always recognize the accompanying ECG features. I...

BACKGROUND: Drug-induced QT prolongation is a potentially preventable cause of morbidity and mortality, however there are no widespread clinical tools utilized to predict which individuals are at greatest risk. Machine learning (ML) algorithms may pr...
BACKGROUND: QTc interval monitoring, for the prevention of drug-induced arrhythmias is necessary, especially in the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). For the provision of widespread use, surrogates for 12‑lead ECG QTc assessment may be ...
