Statistical methods / analysis
This is an open-label, exploratory pilot study looking to compare electrophysiological characteristics on and off quinidine. Being an exploratory pilot study, this protocol does not have predetermined endpoints but is rather designed to assess the utility of multiple non-invasive parameters and their feasibility for use in future trials. The results of this initial pilot study may inform the magnitude of effect and provide data for power calculations in future clinical trials of Quinidine therapy.
