Recent Ventricular Repolarization Markers in Resistant Hypertension: Are They Different from the Traditional QT Interval?

Abstract

Both the recently proposed repolarization parameters are associated with increased LVM and hypertrophy in patients with resistant hypertension, but only abnormal T-wave axis deviation appears to have distinct and additive relationships to the more classic marker, the QTc interval. Their prognostic values should be addressed in prospective studies .
