PR and QT intervals short on the same electrocardiogram

Francisco R Breijo-Márquez*

Published: 07 April, 2020 | Volume 4 - Issue 1 | Pages: 001-004

In 2007, Professor Breijo-Márquez described an electrocardiographic pattern, consisting of the presence of a short PR interval (or PQ) together with a short QT interval in the same individual. It was published with the headline “Decrease in cardiac electrical systole” in International Journal of Cardiology (IJC) [1].
