Atrioventricular Cross-Talk Leading to Ventricular Pacing Inhibition in a Dual-Chamber ICD

الملخص EN

We report atrio-ventricular cross talk in a patient with a dual chamber ICD leading to ventricular pacing inhibition.

This was observed in an ICD without the ventricular safety pace option, which normally is a sufficient protection against this phenomenon.

Cross talk could be prevented effectively by reprogramming ventricular sensitivity to a less sensitive setting.
