Background and objectives: The risk of sudden death and cardiac arrhythmia increases in morbidly obese patients. We aimed to evaluate the marker of arrhythmias such as Tp-e/QT, Tp-e/QTc, Tp-e/JT and Tp-e/JTc ratios in extreme obesity. Methods: The study included 41 extremely obese patients and 41 control subjects. QTmax, QTmin, US, JT and Tp-e intervals were measured od 12-lead electrocardiographies. In addition, Tp-e/QT, Tp-e/QTc, Tp-e/JT and Tp-e/JTc rates and QTc, cQTd and JTc intervals were calculated. Results: Tp-e interval (79.2 +/- 9.7 ms (milisecond) vs. 68.6 +/- 8.1, p < 0.001), QTc interval (395.9 +/- 18.8 vs. 377.9 +/- 19.3 ms, p < 0.001), JTc interval (317.1 +/- 27.0 vs. 297.4 +/- 23.2 ms, p = 0.001), Tp-e/QT ratio (0.22 +/- 0.03vs. 0.19 +/- 0.02, p < 0.001),Tp-e/QTc ratio (0.20 +/- 0.26vs. 0.18 +/- 0.02, p = 0.001), Tp-e/JT ratio (0.29 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.25 +/- 0.03, p < 0.001), TPe/JTc ratio (025 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.23 +/- 0.03, p = 0.018), QTd (32.8 +/- 10 vs.15 +/- 6.4 ms, p < 0.001) and cQTd (70.0 +/- 30.1 vs. 313 +/- 22.4 ms, p < 0.001) were significantly higher in obese patients. Conclusion: Compared to healthy subjects potential ECG repolarization predictors were significantly increased in extremely obese patients. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
