Dynamics of QT Interval in a Patient With Long QT Syndrome and a Normal QT Interval
A case report of a 15-year-old girl who experienced syncope and torsades de pointes is presented. The girl had a normal QT interval (QTc=0.37 sec) on the resting electrocardiogram (ECG). Infusion of isoproterenol induced QT prolongation (QTc=0.62 sec) and frequent occurrence of multiform ventricular premature beats. Her Holter ECG showed a prolongation
