It was reported that failure to capture, failure to sense, and low pacing impedance was observed on right ventricular (rv) lead during an unrelated procedure.Loss of capture was reproducible during provocation testing.No intervention was performed and the procedure was completed.The patient is not pacemaker dependent.The rv lead was explanted and replaced at a later date to resolve the event and the patient was in stable condition.A lead fracture was alleged to be the cause of the event, however this was not confirmed via diagnostic imaging or during the explant procedure.
