Abstract

Aim: Clinical studies have shown that there may be an association between early repolarization (ER) and arrhythmic death. Recent studies supported an association between short QT syndrome and early repolarization. The aim of this study was to show whether the QTc interval is shorter in patients with ER compared with the healthy subjects. Material and Method: This study included 80 healthy participants with early repolarization (n=40) and normal ECG (n=40). The ECG parameters such as QT, QTc, JT, JTc, QT - apex, JT- apex and T-peak to T-end were measured in all derivations and mean values were calculated. Results: Mean QT and QTc interval were 371.69±58.54 and 410.20±22.50 379.46±21.93 msn in health subjects, 357.29±28.77 and 379.46±21.93 msn in ERP group (p=0.027; p<0,001, respectively). Mean JT and JTc interval were 290.56±28.26 and 331.13±24.59 msn in health subjects, 273±29.96 and 296.21±22.33 msn in ERP group ( p=0.013 ; p<0.001, respectively). Conclusion: In our study, early repolarization group had shorter QT, QTc, JT, JTc, QT-apex interval than normal healthy population. Future clinical studies sho

Özet

Amaç: Son zamanlarda, erken repolarizasyon (ER) ile ani kardiyak ölüm arasında ilişki olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Yapılan çalışmalarda kısa QT sendromu olan hastalarda erken repolarizasyon sıklığının fazla olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı elektrokardiyografisinde (EKG) erken repolarizasyon olan kişilerde QT aralığının normal popülasyona göre daha kısa olup olmadığını araştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya EKG’lerinde erken repolarizasyon saptanan (n=40) ve EKG’si normal olan, yaş ve cinsiyete göre birebir eşleştirilmiş (n=40) toplam 80 sağlıklı kişi dahil edildi. EKG’lerde tüm derivasyonlarda QT, QTc, JT, JTc, QTtepe, JTtepe, Ttepe-end aralıkları ölçüldü ve tüm değerlerin ortalaması alındı. Bulgular: QT ve QTc aralığı erken repolarizasyon grubunda 357,29±28,77 ve 379,46±21,93 msn, normal grupta 371,69±58,54 ve 410,20±22,50 msn ölçüldü (p=0,027; p<0,001). Ortalama JT ve JTc erken repolarizasyon grubunda 273±29,96 ve 296,21±22,33 msn, normal grupta 290,56±28,26 ve 331,13±24,59 msn ölçüldü (p=0,013 ; p<0,001). Ortalama QTtepe erken repolarizasyon grubunda daha kısa bulundu (p=0,015). Sonuç: Bu çalışmada normal sağlıklı bireyler ile kıyaslandığında erken repolarizasyonu olan kişilerde QT, QTc, JT, JTc, QTtepe aralıklarının daha kısa olduğu görüldü. Erken repolarizasyonda görülen aritmik olaylar ile QT aralığı ilişkisini gösteren daha büyük çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
