Inappropriate ICD Shocks for Inappropriate Reasons
ICD shocks can result from a variety of etiologies; determining the proper etiology of the inappropriate shock is essential for correction of the problem. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can mimic cardiac signals and cause inappropriate defibrillator shocks. We present two cases of inappropriate ICD shocks due to EMI and reversal of the proximal and distal DF-1 lead terminals of the ICD lead...
متن کاملDoes difference in ICD indication result in a difference in inappropriate shock risk?
Brugada syndrome is a heritable cause of fatal ventricular arrhythmias in people with otherwise structurally normal hearts. It is diagnosed by the identification of a characteristic ECG pattern in association with certain risk factors [1]. Some risk factors are clinical events likely to be precipitated by ventricular arrhythmias, such as syncope and agonal respirations during sleep. Such patien...
متن کاملInappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks in Brugada syndrome: Pattern in primary and secondary prevention
BACKGROUND Inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks is a common complication in Brugada syndrome. However, the incidence in recipients of ICD for primary and secondary prevention is unknown. METHOD AND RESULTS We compared the rate of inappropriate shocks in patients with Brugada syndrome that had an ICD for primary and secondary prevention. We studied 51 patients, 86....
متن کاملTachyarrhythmia Cycle Length in Appropriate versus Inappropriate Defibrillator Shocks in Brugada Syndrome, Early Repolarization Syndrome, or Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are indicated in patients with Brugada syndrome (BS), early repolarization syndrome (ERS), or idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) who are at high risk for sudden cardiac death. The optimal ICD programming for reducing inappropriate shocks in these patients remains to be determined. We investigated the difference in t...
متن کاملInappropriate ICD Shocks - When Monitoring Zones Do More Than Monitor
The ventricular tachycardia (VT) monitoring zone in implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) is usually programmed to detect slow VTs. However, it is not well known whether programming this zone can affect the ICD arrhythmia redetection or confirmation criteria. We report two cases of inappropriate ICD shocks due to the programming of a slow VT monitoring zone in the same device model.
