Automated capture management failure leading to ventricular fibrillation: Is automatic capture management for all or personalized pacing programming?

Key Points

The case aims to investigate the implications of automated capture management failure in pacing-induced proarrhythmia.
Review of a rare case involving automated ventricular capture management

Structured PICO

Population

1 individual with CRT-D

Intervention

automated ventricular capture management

Outcome

pacing-induced proarrhythmia (ventricular fibrillation)safety

Automated ventricular capture management in CRT-D devices can rarely lead to pacing-induced proarrhythmia such as ventricular fibrillation.

Abstract

This case highlights a rare case of pacing-induced proarrhythmia due to failure of capture during automated ventricular capture management in an individual with CRT-D.
