As a reminder from the talk given today by Dr. Boutin, this is the link to the site she mentioned where you can search medications that may be associated with risks of prolonged QT/Torsades des Pointes:

Vision Test
If you have an iPhone... then this post is for you, and if you are one of those that doesn't have one yet, you will eventually so this will be useful to you one day...
In case you aren't aware, there is a FREE vision test app made by 3 sided cube that was rated the #1 medical app for 2010. I don't have an iPhone (yet), but my husband does, and I tried it out. I think it is a very simple vision screening tool that you can use at the bedside, thereby saving you the time of dragging the patient into the hall to use the wall chart.
