Related manufacturer report number: 2017865-2023-94436.It was reported, the patient presented in clinic due to feeling dizzy.Upon interrogation, it was observed the device was intermittently pacing, although programmed differently.Additionally, an increase in the pacing impedance was observed on the right ventricular (rv) lead.The device was explanted and replaced, and the rv lead was capped and replaced to resolve the event.The patient was stable.

The reported event of pacing anomaly was confirmed upon review of the device data.Analysis revealed high impedance was confirmed on right ventricular from the device image.The cause of pacing anomaly was due to high impedance anomaly.The device was above elective replacement indicator (eri) when received.Telemetry, impedance, sensing, pacing and high voltage (hv) output functions of the device were tested and found to be normal.The anomaly observed in the field could not be reproduced.
