Effects of propofol on ventricular repolarization and incidence of malignant arrhythmias in adults.

Background: Propofol is commonly used for procedural sedation in interventional electrophysiology. However, ventricular arrhythmias under Propofol have been reported. Our aim was to investigate ventricular repolarization and incidence of ventricular arrhythmias under Propofol infusion in adults with cardiac arrhythmias.
