Drug‐induced long QT syndrome (diLQTS) is a clinical entity in which administration of a drug produces marked prolongation of the QT interval on the ECG. DiLQTS places a patient at risk of developing Torsades de Pointes (TdP), a malignant polymorphic ventricular tachycardia associated with arrhythmic sudden cardiac death (SCD). In addition to diLQTS, other clinical risk factors for TdP include female gender, bradycardia, electrolyte disturbances, recent conversion to normal (sinus) rhythm, and congenital LQTS.
