Key Points

Psychotropic medications significantly prolong PR, QRS, and QT intervals, indicating cardiovascular effects.
Statistical analysis showed that medications like Haldol and Nurodol are associated with prolonged PR and QRS intervals.
A total of 85 psychiatric patients were included, and significant associations were noted for multiple medications.
General implications emphasize the need for regular EKG monitoring in patients on psychotropic drugs.

Implication

Observational analysis identifies significant effects on PR, QRS, and QT intervals in patients, indicating potential cardiovascular risks.
