Context information:
Measures of the magnitude of (uncorrected) QT interval predicted the risk of TdP significantly better than dose, heart rate, or the mere presence of a prolonged QT. Moreover, the magnitude of the QT prolongation was a better predictor of TdP than the mere presence or absence of an abnormal QT, highlighting the problematic nature of using a single cutoff value for risk assessment.
