The impact of elevated cumulative anthracycline dose on cardiac repolarization changes in children with cancer: a prospective study

Purpose: We aimed to prospectively interpret the cardiac repolarization changes with 12-lead electrocardiography (ECG) in children with cancer who were treated with anthracycline drugs. Materials and methods: A total of 53 patients with cancer treated with anthracycline were enrolled in the study. During 6-month follow-up, standard 12-lead ECG was performed at basal, 1st, 4th, and 24th hours after the first dose of anthracycline treatment, at the time of 120 mg/m2 cumulative anthracycline dose and 240 mg/m2 of cumulative anthracycline dose in the same patients, respectively. P dispersion (PWd), QT dispersion (QTd), corrected QT dispersion (QTcd), Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT, and Tp-e/QTc ratio were obtained from 12-lead ECG. The patients were classified into three groups according to increasing cumulative anthracycline doses: Group 1: first dose (n=53), Group 2: 120 mg/m2 (n=53), Group 3: 240 mg/m2 (n=53). Results: The median age was 48 months (range 9-192 months). While PWd, QTd, QTcd, and Tp-e interval were significantly increased during first 24 hours of the first dose (p

Amaç: Antrasiklin kemoterapisi ile tedavi edilen kanserli çocuklarda kardiyak repolarizasyon değişikliklerini 12 derivasyonlu elektrokardiyografi (EKG) ile değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve yöntem: Antrasiklin ile tedavi edilen kanserli toplam 53 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Bu hastalara 12 derivasyonlu EKG ile antrasiklin tedavisinin ilk dozu, 120 mg/m2 ve 240 mg/m2 kümülatif dozu sırasında her doz uygulamasının ilaç verilmeden hemen öncesinde ve ilaç verildikten sonraki 1., 4. ve 24. saatinde EKG’leri çekildi. Bu EKG’lerden P dispersiyonu (PWd), QT dispersiyonu (QTd), düzeltilmiş QT dispersiyonu (QTcd), Tp-e aralığı, Tp-e/QT ve Tp-e/QTc oranı hesaplandı. Hastalar artan kümülatif antrasiklin dozlarına göre üç gruba ayrıldı: Grup 1: ilk doz (n=53), Grup 2: 120 mg/m2 (n=53), Grup 3: 240 mg/m2 (n=53). Bulgular: Ortanca yaş 48 ay (aralık 9-192 ay) idi. İlk dozun ilk 24 saatinde PWd, QTd, QTcd ve Tp-e değişkenleri anlamlı olarak artış gösterdiği saptandı. (sırasıyla p
