A 12-year-old girl named Xiaohan was rushed to the hospital after experiencing prolonged seizures triggered by the sound of her alarm clock. Diagnosed with Long QT Syndrome, a rare heart rhythm disorder, she was successfully treated with medication and regular monitoring, allowing her to return to school. The syndrome is caused by abnormal ion channels on the surface membrane of heart muscle cells, leading to potentially life-threatening irregular heartbeats. It is crucial to seek immediate medical attention in cases of unexplained fainting or seizures in children to prevent serious consequences.
