After resuscitation and defibrillation , there were no more episodes of TdP. Had there been recurrent episodes of pause-dependent TdP, temporary ventricular pacing at a higher heart rate would have been indicated to suppress the pauses and in that way decreasing the risk of further episodes of TdP. The ECG shows sinus rhythm.

Around Xmas time in 2020, she developed a flu-like illness and after that she started noticing that she was getting breathless on very modest levels of exertion. Interventions that may prolong life include implantation of a defibrillator. So she contacted her GP but unfortunately couldn’t even get an appointment for 3 weeks.
