Overview

Case study illustrates undetected focal atrial tachycardia in an 81-year-old male, indicating device limitations.

Key Points

  • Focal atrial tachycardia went undetected by the dual chamber ICD, leading to missed diagnosis.
  • ICD interrogation did not identify the sustained atrial tachycardia due to programmed detection thresholds.
  • Electrophysiologist successfully terminated the tachycardia through pacing after clinical evaluation.
  • Patient required ablation therapy following recurrence, emphasizing the need for device monitoring.
