Abstract

An 81-year-old male with a history of systolic heart failure due to an underlying ischemic cardiomyopathy with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 13% and QRS duration of 130 ms had undergone an uncomplicated cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator implantation (Quadra Assura MP, St. Jude Medical, LV lead (SJM Quartet 1458Q-86), RA lead (Biotronik Safio S53) and RV shocklead (Biotronik Linox Smart S65 ProMRI) in 2015.

Keywords: CRTD; noise; oversensing; securesense; sensitivity.
