Amiodarone-induced QT prolongation in a newly transplanted heart associated with recurrent ventricular fibrillation
Anti-arrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone have the potential to prolong QT intervals, which can result in torsades de point arrhythmia. It is unknown whether amiodarone, given to a recipient prior to cardiac transplantation, can cause arrhythmia in a newly transplanted donor heart. We report on a cas...
