Event Description
|
It was reported that the impedance of the right ventricular (rv) coil and superior vena cava (svc) coil of the rv lead jumped to being high undefined.It was also noted that the left ventricular (lv) lead impedance jumped to being high undefined.Electrograms (egm) noted noise on both leads.The rv lead and lv lead are still in use.No patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.
