Machine-measured QTc using the Bazett formula overestimates the QTc interval length and number of people with a prolonged QTc, compared with other formulae and the QT-nomogram. We recommend manually measuring the QT and correcting with the Fridericia formula or QT-nomogram prior to modifying antipsychotic therapies.
