Description
The Corrected QT Interval allows for improved detection of patients at increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia.
Calculator Search/Filter Keywords
At the calculator level, eCalcs comes delivered with default keywords that can be leveraged in the "Search/Filter" field to enable Specialty or System driven calculator searching. The following calculator keywords are delivered by default for the Corrected QT Interval calculator:
Specialties
- Cardiology
- Critical Care
- Family Practice
- Internal Medicine
- Toxicology
Systems

Calculator Configuration Options
| Preference Name | Valid Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Publishing | Checked / Unchecked | When checked the calculator will display for users on the front end. When unchecked, the calculator WILL NOT display for users on the front end. |
| Orderable Item Override | (BLANK) / G-QTc | “(BLANK)” indicates that the global configuration options for Orderable Item will be used. “G-QTc” indicates that the calculator specific value will be used and can display the specific calculator name in the output. |
Calculator Inputs
| Input | Mapping Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| QT Interval | Manual Input | The QT interval 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 |
| Heart Rate | Vitals | Patient's Heart Rate |
Calculator Outputs
| Output | Mapping Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| QTc | Result | Corrected QT (QTc) |
