Do dual-chamber SVT-VT discrimination algorithms improve the accuracy of tachycardia detection compared to single-chamber algorithms in ICDs?
Dual-chamber ICD algorithms offer advantages over single-chamber ones for SVT-VT discrimination, but require careful management of atrial sensing to avoid inappropriate therapy or underdetection.
