Long QT interval causes long QT syndrome. An abnormally prolonged QTc interval is referred to as long QT interval. The upper reference limit for QTc interval is 460 ms in males and 470 ms in females. QTc intervals exceeding these limits may cause torsade de pointes.

In patients with the congenital form of long QT syndrome (LQTS) the relative risk of sudden death from cardiac arrhythmia for a QTc of 440 ms is 1, for a QTc of 500 ms it is 1.4 and for a QTc of 640 ms it is 2.8. 2 Females are more susceptible than males to QTc prolongation caused by drugs, because of the specific regulation by sex hormones of
