Contribution of remote monitoring to the early diagnosis of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks in the patient with cardiac resynchronisation therapy
Original language description
We present the case of a 68-year-old man with coronary artery disease and a history of recurrent myocardial infarctions, having left ventricular ejection fraction 25% in NYHA functional class III. The patient received a biventricular cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) Biotronik Lumax 340 HF-T in November 2008 from the primary prophylactic indication. Remote monitoring using the Biotronik Home MonitoringTM (HM) system was activated since device implantation. Up to April 2012 the patient received five shocks including 3 appropriate VF therapies and 2 inappropriate ICD shocks (due to T-wave oversensing and atrial flutter degenerating to VF after ATPs). All arrhythmic events were promptly detected by the HM system with a rapid consequent pharmacological andnon-pharmacological intervention (radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial arrhythmia and reprogramming the device). This case points out that prophylactic ICD implantation is a justifiable method for the prevention of arrhythmic death
