Associations of Prolonged QTc in Sickle Cell Disease

Associations of Prolonged QTc in Sickle Cell Disease

Sudden death is a leading cause of mortality in sickle cell disease, implicating ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Prolonged QTc on an electrocardiogram (ECG), commonly seen with myocardial ischemia, is a known risk for polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT). We hypothesized that prolonged QTc is asso...
