Diagnostic accuracy of a single‐lead portable ECG device for measuring QTc prolongation

BACKGROUND: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of a single-lead portable ECG device for measuring QTc-intervals in comparison with a standard 12-lead ECG. METHODS: Adult patients visiting the cardiology outpatient clinic for a 12-lead recording were also measured with a portable single-lead ECG recorder (HeartcheckTM). QTc-intervals were determined by two cardiologists. Perfect agreement was defined as a limit of
