Abstract:
Occurrence of supraventricular tachycardia is a common cause of clinical impairment for patients implanted with CRT devices. We report the case of atrial activity oversensing by the left ventricular (LV) lead during typical flutter, which led to LV pacing inhibition. Temporary reprogramming of the LV detection from standard bipolar to extended bipolar and cavotricuspid isthmus ablation solved this problem.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
