Unfortunately Fortunate

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
An 88-year-old female presented with inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks. Interrogation revealed lead noise sensed as ventricular fibrillation, leading to 11 shocks in 1 day. A defibrillation at the period of maximal vulnerability

CyberKnife can cause inappropriate shock

Turk Kardiyoloji Dernegi Arsivi-Archives of the Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2012
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) have been increasingly used to treat life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Although they have life-saving capabilities, they are very sensitive to electromagnetic energy sources. It has been reported that many problems associated with the detection of tachyarrhythmias and termination of the ...

A real‐world experience of subcutaneous and transvenous implantable cardiac defibrillators—comparison with the PRAETORIAN study

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2022
Background PRAETORIAN is the first randomized controlled trial that demonstrated the noninferiority of subcutaneous ICD (S‐ICD) in comparison with transvenous ICD (TV‐ICD).

Inappropriate ICD Shock as a Result of TASER Discharge

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
Conducted energy weapon (commonly known as TASER) discharge in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators is known to cause electromagnetic interference and inappropriate ventricular fibrillation sensing without delivery of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators therapy during conducted energy weapon application.

An inappropriate shock after reprogramming tachycardia zones [PDF]

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2019
AbstractA 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.

Decreased inappropriate shocks with new generation ICDs in children and patients with congenital heart disease [PDF]

, 2018
ObjectiveInappropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks in children and patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) remain a major complication of device therapy, occurring in as many as 50% of children with ICDs.

Comparison of Inappropriate Shocks and Other Health Outcomes Between Single‐ and Dual‐Chamber Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillators for Primary Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death: Results From the Cardiovascular Research Network Longitudinal Study of Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillators

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundIn US clinical practice, many patients who undergo placement of an implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death receive dual‐chamber devices.

Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator Shock: Appropriate or Inappropriate? [PDF]

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2010
A 76‐year‐old female with a single chamber implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator implanted for secondary prevention was referred due to multiple discharges. The device was programmed for ventricular tachycardia (VT) detection at 400 ms, fast VT detection at 280 ms, and ventricular fibrillation detection at 320 ms.

Electromagnetic Interference from Swimming Pool Generator Current Causing Inappropriate ICD Discharges

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2017
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) includes any electromagnetic field signal that can be detected by device circuitry, with potentially serious consequences: incorrect sensing, pacing, device mode switching, and defibrillation.
