摘要
We assessed the feasibility of AliveCor tracings for QTC assessment in patients receiving dofetilide. Five patients with persistent AF underwent the two-handed measurement (mimicks Lead I). On the ECG, Lead I or II was used. There was no significant difference between the AliveCor-QTC and ECG-QTC (all +/- 20 msec). The AliveCor device can be used to monitor the QTC in these patients.
