  • MalfunctionAug 26, 2026Over-Sensing

    It was reported that non sustained right ventricular oversensing (NSRVOS) was noted on stored electrocardiograms (EGMs) via remote transmissions. The NSRVOS was suspected to be due to noise on the right ventricular (RV) lead. The patient's wife noted the noise may have coincided with physical activity by the patient such as physiotherapy or getting up from a wheelchair. The noise was reproducible with isometric testing in clinic. Other RV lead parameters were stable. Programming changes were made. The patient was to continue being monitored. There were no patient consequences.

  • MalfunctionAug 25, 2026High impedance

    It was reported that the patient's right ventricular (RV) lead exhibited a high pacing impedance. Multiple reposition attempts were made during the procedure on (b)(6) 2026 to achieve optimal parameters, but the RV lead was ultimately explanted and replaced. The patient was stable.

  • InjuryAug 5, 2026Failure to Capture; Device Sensing Problem

    It was reported that during remote follow-up, the patient's right ventricular (RV) lead exhibited a low R-wave amplitude. During in-clinic testing, loss of capture was also noted on the RV lead. X-ray and computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed that the RV lead had perforated the myocardium and pericardium, with the tip of the lead located in the left pericardial fat. The physician elected to explant the RV lead and replace it with a new one. Following the procedure, a pericardial effusion was observed, and the patient underwent a sternotomy with attempted repair. The patient condition remained stable.
