Event Description
|
It was reported that this device, right atrial (ra), right ventricular (rv) and left ventricular (lv) lead exhibited noise and decreased amplitude measurements.Some of the noise on the ra channel appeared to be consistent with oversensing related to the minute ventilation feature and high out of range ra pacing impedance measurements greater than 2,000 ohms was observed.Additionally, decreased pacing impedance measurements and loss of capture (loc) was observed on the rv channel.It was reported that the patient suffered from twiddlers syndrome and appeared to have twiddled the system.The ra lead was suspected to have fractured as a result.An invasive procedure was performed.The product was part of a system explant.Available information indicates that no new system was implanted.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
