Advanced Age, Female Gender and Delay in Pacemaker Implantation May Cause TdP in Patients With Complete Atrioventricular Block.
Indian pacing and electrophysiology journal(2010)
Abstract
Among the patients with CAVB, elderly females are more susceptible to development of TdP. Delay in institution of physiological heart rate leads to further QT prolongation and thereby to TdP. Besides QT prolongation, the finding of T wave notching on ECG may also have a predictive value for TdP.
