Talk:QT interval

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There is some confusion in the first paragraph of this article. The phrase "The QT interval is dependent of the heart rate" is confusing. The word "independent" is generally followed by "of" but the word "dependent" is generally followed by the word "on". Unfortunately, I do not have time right now to check this fact to find out which word to change.--Heritagecoinshop 23:32, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] EKG graphic desired

It would be nice to have an EKG graphic showing what part this QT interval is. It would even help give the lay person some idea of what it is (most people have seen EKG graphics already).

[edit] QTcF not frequently used?

I'd like to see a citation on this. Not that I don't believe it, but I've definitely seen it used as the measure of choice when other correction methods are available. –Scott182 01:36, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Abbreviations QTc vs. QTF?

I'm confused by the left-hand side of the two formulas. I thought that it was "QTcB" for the Bazett formula, and "QTcF" for the Fridericia formula. Can somebody more knowledgeable comment or amend? (212.203.114.194 18:12, 12 November 2007 (UTC))
