Assessment of Atrial Fibrillation and Ventricular Arrhythmia Risk After Transplant in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease by P-wave/QT Interval Dispersion, T-Wave Peak-End Interval, and T-Wave Peak-End/QT Interval Ratio.

CONCLUSIONS: P-wave dispersion, corrected QT dispersion, T-wave peak-end interval, and T-wave peak-end/corrected QT ratio were shown to be attenuated after transplant, although they remained higher than baseline measurements in healthy individuals. These results indirectly offer that there may be a reduction in risk of atrial fibrillation and ventricular arrhythmias after transplant.
