The electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is often a puzzling problem. The difficulty of the device function evaluation further increases in the presence of unfamiliar timing cycles and additional functions. Authors present a special function of a Biotronik ICD devices called the thoracic impedance monitoring, and demonstrate its behavior in a patient with sinus rhythm, ventricular ectopic beats, and ventricular tachycardia episode. This report shows unexceptional occurrence of tricky ECG finding in patient with Biotronik ICD.
对于植入式心脏复律除颤器（ICD）患者的心电图（ECG）解读常常是一个令人困惑的问题。在存在不熟悉的计时周期和附加功能的情况下，评估该设备功能的难度进一步增加。作者介绍了百多力ICD设备的一种特殊功能——胸阻抗监测，并展示了其在一名窦性心律、室性早搏和室性心动过速发作患者中的表现。本报告显示，在使用百多力ICD的患者中，出现棘手的心电图表现并不罕见。
