Abstract:OBJECTIVE: Pulmonary thromboembolism is a disease with high morbidity and mortality. Various changes occur on the electrocardiogram secondary to pulmonary thromboembolism. The objective of this study was to investigate variations in QT dispersion, Tpeak-Tend duration, and Tpeak-Tend/QT ratio in relation to pulmonary thromboembolism localization and their impacts on 30-day mortality. METHODS: This study was carried out in a tertiary emergency medicine clinic between December 1, 2019 and November 30, 2020. We ev… Show more
