    Effect of Remifentanil on the Tpeak-Tend Interval During Electroconvulsive Therapy

    QT interval dispersion, which reflects the regional heterogeneity of ventricular repolarization, increases during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Tpeak-Tend (TpTe) is considered a new marker of the transmural...

    Effect of Methadone on Cardiac Repolarization in Japanese Cancer Patients: A Longitudinal Study

    Methadone is known to prolong the QT interval, which could induce lethal arrhythmias such as torsades de pointes. To determine the risk of ventricular arrhythmias in cancer patients using methadone, we measure...

    Comparison of Cardiac Repolarization After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation and Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement: A Longitudinal Study

    Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been established as an alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for high-risk patients. To assess the impact of TAVI on cardiac repolarization,...

    Effects of Neostigmine and Sugammadex for Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade on QT Dispersion Under Propofol Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial

    Reversal of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent neostigmine is associated with QT prolongation under general anesthesia. To clarify the effects of neostigmine and sugammadex on hemodynamic status, th...
