24 h Holter ECG Monitoring of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis—A Potential Role for a Precise Evaluation of QT Interval Duration and Associated Arrhythmic Complications

24 h Holter ECG Monitoring of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis—A Potential Role for a Precise Evaluation of QT Interval Duration and Associated Arrhythmic Complications

Background: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have increased systemic inflammatory burden associated with elevated cardiovascular mortality. Prolonged ventricular repolarisation evaluated by QT interval duration is a risk factor for cardiovascular and total mortality. In RA, mortality risk is...
