# TCA
see: [[TCA overdose]], [[ECG]],
# Sodium channel blocker
- QRS prolongation
- QT prolongation
- terminal R wave in aVR (can be subtle)
- low q-R ratio
## Causes
* TCA
* propranolol
* flecanide
* lignocaine
* cocaine
* lamotrigine
* venlafaxine
* hydroxchlorquine
see: [[Sodium channel blocker]]
# Digoxin
- Ventricular ectopics
- digoxin effect(down-sloping STD --> not toxicity, just shows cardiac clycoside
- STE aVR
- slow, features of AV block
## Treatment
DigiFab
indications for digivab: concerning ventricular issues (just bradycardia is not an indication)
see: [[Digoxin toxicity]]
# Long QT
See [goldfrank QT interval](x-devonthink-item://2F041FBD-FF1C-4E21-9CD5-5550C288F006?page=277&istart=7959&ilength=10&search=QT%2520Interval)

## Drugs associated with QT prlongation

- sotolol (beta blocking and K+ blocking)
- antipsychotics
- SSRI
- [[Amiodarone]] (hence why we do not use for tox!)
