Abstract
This review aims to present and compare various Torsade de pointes propensity classification schemes of drugs that are publicly available from many scientific sources. We have also tracked and listed the compounds that were differently categorized. Additionally, we would like to draw attention to the need for establishing a general, standardized classification of a drug's proarrhythmic propensity. This is especially important in the current drug development process because of the changing paradigm of drug cardiac safety assessment.Entities:
