Droperidol and QTc Interval Changes in ED Patients

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Objectives To assess the association of low-dose Droperidol administration in the emergency department with changes in the QTc interval. Hypothesis Our study is designed to test the null hypothesis that there will be no clinically significant change in QTc interval after administration of 2.5mg of IV Droperidol during an emergency department visit.
