T-Wave Oversensing with Contemporary Implantable Cardioverter–Defibrillators
Background: Implantable cardioverter–defibrillators (ICDs) need to reliably detect ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) while avoiding T-wave oversensing (TWOS), which is associated with a risk of inappropriate therapies.
