The QT interval assesses cardiac repolarization and risk for arrhythmias. It is a measure of the time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave in the heart's electrical cycle. It is dependent on heart rate and is corrected (c) to aid interpretation via Fridericia's adjustment (F), and is reported as QTcF.
