During a supraventricular tachycardia procedure, output issues required multiple troubleshooting measures which resulted in a procedural delay.The amplifier was replaced and the procedure was completed with no adverse consequences to the patient.It was noted that no stimulation spike was displayed on the screen when stimulation was delivered.The capturing/autorecord was not working even though the option was turned on and the settings were ok.The two bnc cables were replaced, the ep4 was replaced, both without resolution.The settings for trigger sweep, autorecord, and cathmap were checked but without resolution.An amplifier was borrowed from another hospital to resolve the issue and the procedure was completed with no adverse consequences to the patient.
