Issue Date: | 2000 | Citation: | Ng, K.-S., Tham, L.-S., Tan, H.-H., Chia, B.-L. (2000). Cisapride and torsades de pointes in a pacemaker patient. PACE - Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology 23 (1) : 130-132. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Cisapride induced QT prolongation with consequent life-threatening arrhythmias including torsades de pointes has recently been documented but is rare. We report the case of a patient who had received permanent pacemaker therapy for complete AV block with symptomatic bradycardia dependent torsades de pointes, but suffered breakthrough torsades during cisapride therapy despite constant pacing. | Source Title: | PACE - Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/129536 | ISSN: | 01478389 |
