Does the heart rate-corrected QT interval predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes?
The QTc interval serves as a simple ECG-based independent predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Heart rate QTc interval is an independent predictor of all-cause and CVD mortality in this population with type 2 diabetes, suggesting that additional prognostic information may be available from this simple ECG measure.
