QT Correction Formulas Compared to The Rule of Thumb ("Half the RR")

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

In other words, if the QT is less than 1/2 the RR (QT non -prolonged) and the heart rate is above about 60 beats a minute, you can confidently say the QT is not prolonged. 3) At heart rates below 60, far more caution is due. 6) Use a different rule of thumb for bradycardia : Manually approximate both the QT and the RR interval.

How a pause can cause cardiac arrest

Similar-looking wide beats #7,13,14 must also be aberrantly conducted supraventricular impulses — and since P waves are lost after beat #6 and subsequent R-R intervals are irregular — beats #7-thru-16 constitute a run of rapid AFib.
