Figure 2 Hourly measurements (mean ± SEM) of QT interval dynamicity (QTc, QTac, Tec), QT interval variability (QTcSD, QtacSD) and mean RR interval during the first 24 h after admission in 97 patients undergoing successful reperfusion by primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in acute myocardial infarction. Rhombs = hour of reperfusion.

Figure 3 Hourly measurements (mean ± SEM) of QT interval dynamicity (QTc, Tec), QT interval variability (QTcSD) and mean RR interval during successful primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in 15 patients with MAE (circles) and 82 patients without MAE (squares) in a one-year follow-up after AMI. AMI = acute myocardial infarction; MAE = major arrhythmic events; Rhombs = hour of reperfusion.
