It was reported that electrogram (egm) review of this cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (crt-d) system was requested to determine whether tachy therapy was delivered and therapy was exhausted in two stored episodes due to true ventricular tachycardia (vt) or atrial fibrillation (af) with rapid ventricular response (rvr).Additionally, it was unclear whether the first shock initiated vt, and it was suspected that anti-tachycardia pacing (atp) had accelerated the patient's rhythm.Technical services (ts) reviewed troubleshooting options and programming considerations.The field representative was unsure whether the patient had lost consciousness.It was noted that the patient was in chronic af, the patient currently had covid-19, and the patient's heartlogic index score was 46.This crt-d system remains in service.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
