It was reported that this implantable cardioverter defibrillator (icd) delivered a shock for ventricular fibrillation (vf), however, the time of the stored episode didn't match the time the patient recalled receiving a shock.The company representative questioned if the device had been interrogated at some point with a programmer that may have been set to a different time due to not being adjusted for daylight savings time.Technical services (ts) then reviewed the stored vf episode and noted the potential that biv trigger pacing facilitated the development of the arrhythmia.This was not confirmed to be the case by the physician.No changes were made.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.This device remains in service.If pertinent information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be submitted.
