nortriptyline and Electrocardiogram QT Prolonged

nortriptyline has been researched along with Electrocardiogram QT Prolonged in 5 studies

Nortriptyline: A metabolite of AMITRIPTYLINE that is also used as an antidepressive agent. Nortriptyline is used in major depression, dysthymia, and atypical depressions.
nortriptyline : An organic tricyclic compound that is 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene substituted by a 3-(methylamino)propylidene group at position 5. It is an active metabolite of amitriptyline.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In this study, we evaluated the effects of two antidepressants, nortriptyline (n=13), a tricyclic, and paroxetine (n=16), an SRI inhibitor, on HR variability in patients with panic disorder, using a measure of chaos, the largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE) using pre- and posttreatment HR time series."7.72Effect of nortriptyline and paroxetine on measures of chaos of heart rate time series in patients with panic disorder. ( Rao, R; Yeragani, VK, 2003)
"This study investigated beat-to-beat QT variability in patients with panic disorder before and after treatment with nortriptyline (n = 13) and paroxetine (n = 16), using an automated algorithm to compute QT intervals."7.70Effects of nortriptyline and paroxetine on QT variability in patients with panic disorder. ( Balon, R; Jampala, VC; Pohl, R; Ramesh, C; Srinivasan, K; Yeragani, VK, 2000)
"We conducted a single-center, retrospective observational study, and evaluated 87 patients (65 amitriptyline, 22 nortriptyline) who underwent 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) examinations both before and after receiving TCAs for herpes zoster pain or postherpetic neuralgia from May 2007 to January 2012."3.80Use of tricyclic antidepressants as analgesic adjuvants results in nonhazardous prolongation of the QTc interval.
