Genetic Predictors of QT Prolongation with Anti-arrhythmic Medication

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of common genetic variants in aggregate to predict drug-induced QT prolongation in patients being started on dofetilide. We will examine the predictiveness of a QT genotype score on QT prolongation in patients admitted for dofetilide initiation.
