Background and objectives
We aimed to evaluate the marker of ventricular arrhythmias such as Tp-e/QT, Tp-e/QTc, Tp-e/JT and Tp-e/JTc ratios in ‘Small Heart Syndrome’ female patients and also aimed to evaluate the association between ‘small heart syndrome’ and fibromyalgia in female patients.
Methods
A total of 94 female, including 47 small-heart and 47 normal-heart patients, who applied from March 2018 to February 2020 and who were examined by a physical therapy and rehabilitation specialist, were included in the study by calculating their cardiothoracic ratios (CTR) from the chest x-ray. QTmax, QTmin,QRS, JT and Tp-e intervals were measured. In addition, Tp-e/QTmax, Tp-e/QTc max, Tp-e/JT and Tp-e/JTc rates and QTc max, QTc min, cQTd and JTc intervals were calculated.
Results
cQTd (24,246 ± 9,046 ms vs. 35,495 ± 14,358 ms, p < 0.001), Tp-e (67,32 ± 11,661 ms vs. 72,67 ± 11,028 ms, p = 0.04), Tp-e/QTc max (0,166 ± 0.028 vs. 0.181 ± 0.027, p = 0,012), Tp-e/JTc (0,214 ± 0.038 vs. 0.232 ± 0.034, p = 0,022) values were significantly higher in small heart patient group. QT min (330,68 ± 26,611 ms vs. 323,04 ± 30,829 ms, p = 0,202) values were significantly lower in patient group.
Conclusion
Compared to control group potential ECG repolarization predictors were significantly increased in ‘Small Heart Syndrome’ patients.
