Implication

Warrants consideration of pacemaker proarrhythmia in unexplained VT; hypothesis-generating for device-specific risks in atrial synchronous pacing.

Case Report (n=1)

Structured PICO

P
Population
A single patient with a normally functioning Medtronic 2409 ASVIP pacemaker who developed recurrent ventricular tachycardia.
E
Exposure
Medtronic 2409 ASVIP pacemaker (atrial synchronous ventricular-inhibited pacemaker)
O
Outcome
Recurrent ventricular tachycardiasafety

Highlights the potential for normally functioning atrial synchronous ventricular-inhibited pacemakers to induce recurrent ventricular tachycardia despite safety features.

Cite This Study

Freedman et al. (1982) conducted a case report in Recurrent ventricular tachycardia (n=1). Medtronic 2409 ASVIP pacemaker was evaluated on Recurrent ventricular tachycardia. A normally functioning Medtronic 2409 ASVIP pacemaker induced recurrent ventricular tachycardia in a single patient.
