RATE between 200 and 250 beats per minute, and QRS complexes with changing amplitude
and twisting of the points. The term also describes the syndrome of tachycardia with
prolonged ventricular repolarization, long QT intervals exceeding 500 milliseconds
or BRADYCARDIA. Torsades de pointes may be self-limited or may progress to VENTRICULAR
FIBRILLATION.;
