An inappropriate shock after reprogramming tachycardia zones [PDF]
Journal of Arrhythmia, 2019 A patient with an implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) (Abbott®) had episodes of slow monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) and his ICD was programmed with three tachycardia zones. During the follow‐up, he received an inappropriate shock. Upon

An uncommon cause of inappropriate ICD shock [PDF]
Clinical Case Reports, 2020 In cases of electromagnetic interference (EMI), if the source of the inappropriate EMI cannot be identified, then the sensitivity of the device could be decreased, or the cycle length of the VF detection trigger zone changed.

An unusual cause for inappropriate defibrillator shock
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2022 A 50-year-old lady with dilated cardiomyopathy and scar VT underwent single chamber implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD, Medtronic Ltd, Evera XT VR, DVBB2D1) implantation 2 months back. A Sprint Quattro secure 6947 DF1 dual coil lead was placed at RV apex. Now, she presents with an episode of ICD shock while having breakfast.

Inappropriate shock for myopotential over-sensing in a patient with subcutaneous ICD [PDF]
Indian Heart Journal, 2015 Inappropriate ICD shocks are common adverse events; they are mainly due to supraventricular arrhythmias and secondly are related to noise, undersensing, oversensing, device malfunctions.

An inappropriate defibrillator shock during ventricular tachycardia
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2015 Ventricular oversensing in patients with defibrillators is an infrequent but deleterious condition. We report a patient with a cardiac resynchronization–defibrillation device that presented with hyperkalemia and syncope.
