It was supposed that there were undernutrition because of hyperemesis, infection, anorexia and vomiting before hospitalization, and malignant ventricular arrhythmias occurred by torsades de pointes secondary to acquired prolonged QT syndrome or by hypokalemia In conclusion, it is necessary to grasp the disease state immediately in a case of urgent hospitalization and apply prompt defibrillation after cardiac arrest.
