OBJECTIVE Bepridil prolongs the QT interval and can induce torsade de pointes. Although increased bepridil concentration may be a primary cause of prolonged QT, the relationship between serum bepridil concentration and prolonged QT remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between serum bepridil concentration and the corrected QT (QTc) interval in patients treated with bepridil. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed at the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center in Japan. Patients with atrial fibrillation who were treated with bepridil from January 2014 to December 2015 were enrolled in the study. Serum bepridil concentrations and electrocardiogram data collected more than 21 days after the initiation of bepridil were used for analysis. RESULTS A total of 60 patients were included in this study. There was a significant difference in mean QTc interval before and after initiation of bepridil (p < 0.0001). A significant relationship was observed between bepridil dose (p = 0.014) or serum bepridil concentration (p
