Twenty-four hour Holter ECG in normocalcemic and hypercalcemic patients with hyperparathyroidism

ConclusionsNCPHPT patients did not experience an increased occurrence of arrhythmias compared to controls, while PHPT patients showed an increased occurrence compared to both controls and NCPHPT. Our findings are most probably related to the short QTc interval caused by hypercalcemia observed in PHPT patients, but not in NCPHPT.
