Phrenic nerve stimulation may still require repositioning despite all quadripolar configurations; leaves open its incidence with current leads.
Case Report (n=1)
Despite the availability of 10 pacing configurations with a quadripolar LV lead, phrenic nerve stimulation may still occasionally require physical lead repositioning.
Kirubakaran et al. (2011) conducted a case report in Phrenic nerve stimulation following cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device implantation (n=1). Electronic repositioning using 10 pacing configurations of a quadripolar left ventricular lead was evaluated on Resolution of phrenic nerve stimulation. Electronic repositioning using all 10 pacing configurations of a quadripolar left ventricular lead failed to overcome significant phrenic nerve stimulation, requiring physical lead repositioning.
