Torsades De Pointes is a specific type of abnormal heart rhythm, or arrhythmia, characterized by a rapid and irregular heartbeat. It often occurs in individuals with a prolonged QT interval, which can be caused by certain medications, electrolyte imbalances, or genetic conditions. This arrhythmia can lead to symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, or even sudden cardiac arrest if not treated promptly. Treatment for Torsades De Pointes typically involves addressing the underlying cause, such as correcting electrolyte levels or discontinuing triggering medications. In some cases, emergency interventions like defibrillation may be necessary to restore a normal heart rhythm. Long-term management may include medications or the use of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator for those at high risk.
