| Core Tip |
Given the greater importance of coronavirus disease 2019 worldwide, there is an ongoing controversy about the potential harms of anti-viral agents in which caused uncertainties in daily clinical practice. Given the unresolved debate, during this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigated the association of Hydroxychloroquine (alone or in combination with azithromycin) with the risk of QT interval prolongation, cardiac arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. Although there are some studies about the effects of these agents, there are scarce systematic reviews and meta-analyses about both QT prolongation and risk of cardiac arrhythmias which is a distinguishing point for our study. |
