prolonged QT interval

augmented oscillation in QT interval duration

increased QT interval

QT interval prolongation

long QT syndrome

increase in QT interval

prolong qt interval on ekg

widened QT interval

Definitions

A prolonged QT interval is a risk factor for ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden death. It varies with heart rate and for clinical relevance requires a correction for this, giving the QTc.[url:http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MP_0003233] increase in the length of time required for ventricular depolarization and repolarization to occur, usually as a result of increased repolarization time, and is measured from the beginning of the QRS complex to the end of the T wave [url:http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MP_0003233]
