In multivariable analysis, lower serum bicarbonate levels were independently associated with QTc prolongation using both formulas (Bazett\u2019s: adjusted OR 0.92, 95%CI 0.87\u20130.98, p=0.007; Fridericia\u2019s: adjusted OR 0.91, 95%CI 0.85\u20130.97, p=0.002). These associations remained consistent across different QTc thresholds, including high-risk and very high-risk QTc prolongation. However, QTc prolongation was not independently associated with length of stay or in-hospital mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>QTc prolongation was frequently observed in patients with DKA and showed an association with the severity of metabolic acidosis, particularly reduced serum bicarbonate levels.
