Comparison of QT-interval and variability index methodologies in individuals with spinal cord injury
Abstract
Study design:Within-group comparison.Objectives:Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) demonstrate an elevated risk for cardiac arrhythmias as indicated by an elevated QT-variability index (QTVI). The methodology measuring the QTVI, however, is not standardized, and therefore the purpose of this investigation is to determine whether the threshold and tangent methods of QT-interval measurement, as well as the electrocardiographic (ECG) epoch …
