  • Title: Inappropriate sensing of pectoral myopotentials by an implantable cardioverter defibrillator system.
    Author: Karanam S, John RM.
    Journal: Pacing Clin Electrophysiol; 2004 May; 27(5):688-9. PubMed ID: 15125734.
    Abstract:
    A case of inappropriate detection of pectoral myopotentials by an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) system due to inadvertent reversal of the high voltage pins in the ICD header is reported. Inappropriate high voltage connections can result in malfunction of both sensing and defibrillation functions of some ICDs.
