Abstract
- Atrial fibrillation; Implantable cardioverter defibrillator; Inappropriate shock Fibrilación auricular; Desfibrilador cardioversor implantable; Shock inapropiado Fibril·lació auricular; Desfibril·lador cardioversor implantable; Xoc inadequat An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) lead dislodgement into the right atrium is a dangerous situation, particularly in patients in atrial fibrillation because atrial fibrillation can be sensed as ventricular fibrillation and true ventricular fibrillation induced with an inappropriate shock. In the presence of shocks, ICD interrogation should be performed as soon as possible.
