Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (crt-d) interrogation report displayed question marks instead of a threshold value when the device feature that automatically monitors pacing thresholds at periodic intervals is programmed off.It was further reported that while sleep in bed in the early morning, the patient went into a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (vt) as stated by the physician.It was noted that the patient developed an unstable ventricular tachycardia (vt) that deteriorated into ventricular fibrillation (vf).It was also noted that the cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (crt-d) feature that helps prevent the inappropriate detection of atrial fibrillation (af) with rapid ventricular response as a ventricular tachyarrhythmia by evaluating the stability of ventricular intervals, initially delayed therapy even after several rounds of anti-tachycardia pacing (atp).The therapy never led to a definitive shock and the patient ultimately passed away as a result of cardiac arrest.
