QTc Calculator API

Calculate corrected QT metrics from ECG timing inputs and return interpretation support for risk workflows.

Endpoint

  • GET /api/v1/qtc-calculator
  • POST /api/v1/qtc-calculator/post

Parameters

Name Type Required In Description
qt number (>0) Yes Query/Body QT interval (milliseconds).
rr number (>0) Conditionally Query/Body RR interval (seconds). Required if heart_rate not provided.
heart_rate number (>0) Conditionally Query/Body Heart rate bpm. Used to derive RR when RR omitted.
sex string No Query/Body male or female for sex-specific thresholds.
lang string No Query Response language (en,es,de,fr,pt,ja,hi,ar).

Why Use This Endpoint

  • Return 4 QTc formulas for clinical-context flexibility.
  • Add interpretation and action fields for triage workflows.
  • Support ECG-driven decision support layers.
