Left ventricular assist devices are used for severe chronic heart failure management. Many of these patients have an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). However electromagnetic interferences are possible between the 2 devices. We report here a case of an interference in a 77 years-old patient. This was associated with an impossibility to communicate with the ICD. We discuss how to manage this situation.
左心室辅助装置用于严重慢性心力衰竭的治疗。这些患者中有许多人植入了心脏复律除颤器(ICD)。然而,这两种装置之间可能存在电磁干扰。我们在此报告一例77岁患者发生干扰的病例。这与无法与ICD进行通信有关。我们讨论了如何处理这种情况。
