Hi.

According to the Radcliffe Cardiology Group the corrected QT interval for females should be <450 to be normal.

An interval between 451-470 is borderline over 470 is prolonged.

I think if you are worried I would talk to your doctor or Cardiologist. A prolonged QTc can mean you have to avoid certain medications and have your blood chemistry checked regularly.

Hope this is helpful.
