Occurrence of Torsade de Pointes prior to complete lead connection during pacemaker implantation
Torsade de Pointes (TdP) can be triggered by a pacing spike on the T-wave, due to pacemaker undersensing. However, it is not widely known that this phenomenon can occur even during pacemaker implantation. An 84-year-old woman underwent pacemaker implantation for the treatment of a complete atriovent...
