The relationship between the TSH values and the Tpeak – Tend interval duration in hypothyroid patients receiving Levothyroxine treatment

Abstract

Introduction. Changes in thyroid hormone level can affect the cardiovascular system. The aim of this study was to show how the Tpeak -Tend (Tpe) interval, which is a new marker of ventricular arrythmia, is affected in patients who have become euthyroid following Levothyroxine treatment for hypothyroidism, as this has not been examined previously in literature.
