Although there have been previous reports of drug\u2010induced TdP in patients, it has not been well documented when caused by citalopram during the pacemaker battery\u2010depletion phase. To improve delirium recognition, we report a case of citalopram\u2010induced TdP during the pacemaker battery\u2010depletion phase. An 84\u2010year\u2010old Chinese female was brought to the hospital presenting recurrent syncope. She lost consciousness and was admitted after her syncope TdP was documented. Her pacemaker was inspected and found to be operating in an extremely ineffective manner. Although she had prolonged QT interval after the pacemaker was replaced, she did not suffer another syncope attack, and ECG monitoring revealed no cardiac arrhythmia or TdP. During her admission, she was treated with citalopram for depression. Citalopram was discontinued when the QT interval shortened progressively. In this study, we described a case of citalopram\u2010induced TdP during the depletion phase of a pacemaker battery. This case should serve as a cautionary lesson to clinicians to avoid using citalopram during the pacemaker battery\u2010depletion phase.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/anec.12936","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,25]],"date-time":"2022-03-25T00:01:19Z","timestamp":1648166479000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Torsade de pointes caused by citalopram during the pacemaker battery\u2010depletion phase: A case report"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2426-8944","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junwen","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology The Affiliated Hospital of Yunnan University  Kunming China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0621-8997","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ziyi","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department Intensive Care Unit The Seventh Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat\u2010sen University  Shenzhen China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8074-1938","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Siming","family":"Tao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology The Affiliated Hospital of Yunnan University  Kunming China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12890\u2010020\u201001217\u20104"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jad.2019.02.060"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/circulationaha.109.192704"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph18189587"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12872\u2010020\u201001622\u2010x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s40263\u2010012\u20100019\u20109"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cvr\/cvz013"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/pace.13532"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jad.2021.08.149"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjmed.2011.12.002"}],"container-title":["Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/anec.12936","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1111\/anec.12936","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/anec.12936","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,24]],"date-time":"2023-08-24T12:57:49Z","timestamp":1692881869000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/anec.12936"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,24]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/anec.12936"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/anec.12936","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1082-720X","1542-474X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1082-720X","type":"print"},{"value":"1542-474X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,24]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2021-11-30","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2022-01-25","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2022-03-24","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e12936"}}
