Reports come from manufacturers, hospitals and patients and are not verified by the FDA. A report does not prove the device caused the event, and counts can't be used to compare devices or estimate failure rates.

  • MalfunctionApr 19, 2021Over-Sensing; Over-Sensing

    REPORTEDLY, THE PATIENT HAD A HISTORY OF MINOR ATRIAL OVERSENSING THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY MANAGED BY DECREASING THE PROGRAMMED ATRIAL SENSITIVITY. HOWEVER, THE STORED EPISODES SEEN DURING THE (B)(6) 2021 INTERROGATION ARE REPORTEDLY WORSE THAN ANYTHING SEEN IN THE PAST. PROVOCATIVE TESTING WAS PERFORMED AND NOISE ON THE ATRIAL EGM WAS REPRODUCED ALONG WITH VENTRICULAR OVERSENSING WITH THE PATIENT LYING ON HER BACK WHILE TURNING HER HEAD FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THE EGM NOISE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE REPRODUCED VIA ISOMETRICS, VALSALVA, DEEP RESPIRATION OR COUGHING. THE POST-V AND POST-R REFRACTORY PERIODS WERE SET OUT TO 155MS AND THE V SENSITIVITY VALUE WAS DECREASED TO 0.8MV. FOLLOWING THESE ADJUSTMENTS, FURTHER VENTRICULAR OVERSENSING WAS UNABLE TO BE REPRODUCED AND THE IMPACT ON INAPPROPRIATE MODE SWITCH WILL BE EVALUATED OVER TIME.
