Sevoflurane, but not Propofol, Significantly Prolongs the Q-T Interval

Abstract

In this study, we evaluated the effect of sevoflurane induction and anesthesia versus propofol induction and anesthesia on the Q-T interval. Sevoflurane significantly prolonged the Q-T interval and the heart rate adjusted Q-T interval, whereas propofol shortened the Q-T interval but not the heart rate adjusted Q-T interval.
