Event Description
|
During an in-clinic follow up, high capture threshold, low sensing threshold, and low pacing impedance were noted on the right ventricular (rv) lead.It is suspected that the cause of the event was due to lead insulation damage.The rv lead was explanted and replaced to resolve the event.The patient was stable with no consequences.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
The reported event of insulation damage was confirmed, but the reported events of high capture threshold, decreased sensing threshold and low pacing lead impedance were not confirmed.As received, a complete lead was returned in one piece.Electrical and x-ray examinations of the lead did not find any indication of conductor fractures or internal shorts.Visual inspection of the lead found electrocautery damage at the proximal region of the lead.The cause of the reported event of insulation damage is consistent with procedural damage.
