Corrected QT interval (QTc)
Show Bazett and Fridericia heart-rate corrections from a measured QT and RR interval.
Intended population: Regular rhythm with narrow QRS and manually verified QT measurement; RR must be in seconds.
- Bazett and Fridericia have rate-dependent error, especially at high or low rates. Verify QT end points on the ECG. Wide QRS, pacing or irregular rhythms require a more specific assessment; neither number alone diagnoses long-QT syndrome or selects therapy.
