A full-term neonate in the NICU with a family history of congenital long QT syndrome has been observed to have intermittent episodes of self-limiting torsade de pointes. An EKG confirms a prolonged QTc of 520 msec. Based on current guidelines related to neonatal conduction abnormalities, which intervention is most appropriate for the acute management of this arrhythmia?
Intravenous magnesium sulfate is the first-line treatment for torsade de pointes in neonates with a prolonged QT interval. This medication stabilizes myocardial membranes and helps prevent further arrhythmic episodes.
