The reported events were failure to capture, r-wave amplitude variation and lead dislodgement.As received, a complete lead was returned in one piece.The reported events of failure to capture and r-wave amplitude variation were not confirmed.Visual and x-ray examinations of the lead did not find any anomalies.Electrical testing of the lead did not find any indication of conductor fractures or internal shorts.Visual examination of the lead found the helix was retracted and clogged with blood/tissue.After cleaning and applying torque directly to the connector pin, the helix was able to extend and retract.The measured helix extension length was within specification.
