Hyperglycemia-Induced T-Wave Oversensing as a Cause of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) Failure [PDF]
T-wave oversensing occurs when the counter starts giving dual beeps for every cardiac cycle instead of one. This usually happens when the monitoring lead displays a tall T wave, which is also sharp. R wave sensing algorithms of the devices do not sense T

Ιn a 76-year old man with a dual-chamber ICD implanted five years ago, dizzy spells and significant bradycardia on Holter were not initially recognized as inhibition of bradycardia pacing, due to oversensing.

Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks are always a matter of anxiety and concern for both patient and clinician. We report a case of ischemic cardiomyopathy who reported to us after receiving two shocks within 48 hours.

Permanent pacemaker (PPM) malfunction due to electrical connection problems such as a loose set screw or lead-header malapposition is extremely rare. We present a patient with complete heart block (CHB) who had PPM malfunction and recurrent syncope, late

Cardiac-resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves the cardiac function of patients with left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony. Maintenance of the biventricular pacing rate is very important in managing the hemodynamics in patients implanted with CRT devices.

Smartphone heart monitors in pediatric CIEDs: A pilot study. Smartphone heart monitors did not induce EMI in children with CIEDs, enabling reliable heart rate measurement and accurate identification of ventricular non‐captures. ABSTRACT Background Portable heart monitors enable on‐demand electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings and enhance symptom‐rhythm ...

Abstract Background Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) therapy relies on reliable right ventricular leads for pacing, sensing, and defibrillation. The INVICTA DF4 lead is an active‐fixation, quadripolar design intended to optimize implant workflow and long‐term safety and performance. Methods APOLLO was a prospective, multicenter, single‐arm,

T-wave oversensing and inappropriate shocks: a case report [PDF]
A 27-year-old male with congenital long QT syndrome, SCN5A mutation experienced recurrent inappropriate exercise-related implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks. This device showed T-wave oversensing with double, which lead to these device discharges. Dynamic T-wave oversensing was reproducibly provoked at exercise treadmill testing and was

Worsening Heart Failure From Decreased Atrioventricular Synchronization Rate of a Leadless Pacemaker
Background: Atrioventricular synchronous pacing with a leadless pacemaker is a therapy used in patients with atrioventricular block. However, atrial oversensing may cause an increase in heart rate, with resulting atrioventricular dyssynchrony.

A 50-year-old male with a CRT defibrillator received inappropriate ICD shocks due to T-wave oversensing. Decreasing the sensitivity to avoid T wave oversensing was not an option due to a suboptimal R-wave sensing amplitude.
