[QT dispersion and myonecrosis after stent percutaneous coronary intervention].

Background: QT dispersion (QTd) is the difference between the maximum and the minimum QT interval in the 12-lead ECG. There is currently no information on the relationship between QTd and creatine kinase (CK)-MB release in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods: Among 118 patients undergoing successful PCI stenting, QTd and corrected QTd (QTdc) were measured at standard 12-lead ECG before PCI and at 6 and 18 hours after PCI.
