It was reported that this implantable cardioverter defibrillator (icd) delivered an inappropriate shock due to a supraventricular tachycardia (svt).Technical services (ts) recommended reprogramming to change from tachy zone to a shock box so they can treat the patient with medicines or ablation.Additional information received approximately four years later reported that this icd delivered three bursts of anti-tachycardia pacing (atp) and a single shock due to svt.The shock broke the svt and normal sinus rhythm resumed.Technical services (ts) discussed troubleshooting options and programming considerations.The icd remains in service.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
