Does a downloadable lead-integrity algorithm reduce the likelihood of inappropriate shocks in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and lead fractures?
A novel downloadable lead-integrity algorithm for existing implantable cardioverter-defibrillators provides short-term warning and reduces the likelihood of inappropriate shocks in patients with lead fractures.
A lead-integrity algorithm developed for download into existing implantable cardioverter-defibrillators increases short-term warning of inappropriate shocks in patients with lead fractures and reduces the likelihood of inappropriate shocks. It is the first downloadable RAMware to enhance the performance of nominally functioning implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and the first implantable cardioverter-defibrillator monitoring feature that triggers real-time changes in ventricular fibrillation detection parameters to reduce inappropriate shocks.
