STUDY OF QTC INTERVAL IN TYPE-2 DIABETES MELLITUS PATIENT
Journal Title: International Journal of Basic and Applied Physiology - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Background & Objectives: To study the prevalence of Corrected QT interval in type 2 diabetic patients and their relationship with clinical and metabolic variables. Methods: This work was done on 110 patients with type 2 DM (56 females; 54 males) in the age range of >30 years, with various duration of disease. All the 110 patients analysed by taking Standard 12- leaded electrocardiograms After calculating QT interval, we found out QTc by usin -Bazett 1920 QTc = QT/ √ RR interval. Results: QTc was prolonged (64%) in both male &female patient. In female RR is decreased while , QTc, QTcMin duration is found to be increased. Patients with increased QTc duration having lower age(p=0.0457), & higher pulse rate(p<0.0001).There is no significant difference in QTc between groups according to various duration of diabetes. This study shows 39.96%. Percent of the variance in QTc explained by this model. The P value is 0.0330, considered significant. Age(years) (p=0.0048 ), &FBS(p=0.0182 ), contribute significantly in QTc. Conclusion: This study, looked into various aspects of T2DM and its correlation with QTc. and cardiovascular dysfunction
