Clinical and electrocardiographic predictors of T wave oversensing in patients with subcutaneous ICD. [PDF]
Background: T wave oversensing (TWOS) is a major drawback of the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD). Data on predictors of TWOS in S-ICD recipients are limited.

Strategies for overcoming T-wave oversensing. [PDF]
Atrial tachycardia/atrial fibrillation accounted for the majority of cardiac resynchronization therapy loss and inappropriate therapies. However, many programmable causes of cardiac resynchronization therapy loss and inappropriate therapies such as TWOS might also be detected.

T-Wave Oversensing with Contemporary Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators. [PDF]
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.

Authors reply to 'strategies for overcoming T-wave oversensing'. [PDF]
In their letter to the editor Cay et al express some valid concerns regarding the strategy we described for overcoming T-wave oversensing in our patient. They stress that programmable features of the device should be used first before planning a reintervention.

T Wave Safety Margin during the Process of ICD Implantation As a Novel Predictor of T Wave Oversensing. [PDF]
Introduction: T wave oversensing (TWOS) is a major drawback of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) and data on predictors of TWOS in ICD is limited.

A case of inappropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy induced by T-wave oversensing due to hyperkalemia. [PDF]
There have been reports of hyperkalemia-induced T-wave oversensing in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). However, a comparison of T-wave amplitudes and morphologies between the surface 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and ICD ...

P wave oversensing and rate-related bundle branch block with T wave oversensing leading to inappropriate S-ICD therapies in cardiac sarcoidosis: A case report. [PDF]
Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators (S-ICDs) are increasingly implanted devices to prevent sudden cardiac death (SCD), whether as a primary or secondary prevention strategies especially in patients who are at risk of developing ...

Device rounds: T-wave oversensing: A cause of loss of cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]
A CRT-D patient presented with loss of biventricular pacing associated with heart failure symptoms. The electrocardiogram showed sinus rhythm with alternating wide unpaced and narrower paced QRS complexes.

T wave oversensing in subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator secondary to hematoma formation: A potential cause of early postimplantation inappropriate shocks. [PDF]
T wave oversensing (TWOS) is the most common cause of inappropriate shocks in subcutaneous cardioverter‐defibrillators (S‐ICD). We are presenting a patient with severe ischemic cardiomyopathy who received a S‐ICD while on antiplatelets therapy.

Two cases of inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapies due to T wave oversensing induced by body twisting. [PDF]
T wave oversensing (TWOS) is a common cause of inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapies. Various algorithms to avoid inappropriate ICD therapy are available; however, they are not helpful to avoid TWOS.
