Why the study?
Does the percentage increase in the QTc interval correlate with plasma and myocardial concentrations of amiodarone in patients receiving oral amiodarone?
Does the percentage increase in the QTc interval correlate with plasma and myocardial concentrations of amiodarone in patients receiving oral amiodarone?
The degree of QTc interval lengthening can be used clinically to estimate the myocardial concentration of amiodarone.
