It was reported that the patient was currently hospitalized for a chest infection.On stored ventricular events from the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (icd) there appeared to be some farfield oversensing on the atrial channel as well as intermittent ventricular capture.Technical services questioned whether the loss of capture could be clinically related; however, it was noted that the ventricular threshold had been highly variable over the past year (ranging from 1.0 v to 5.0 v), so intermittent capture was a possibility.The icd remains in service.
