Background: Careful device programming is necessary to reduce inappropriate
antitachycardia pacing (ATP) and shock therapy in recipients of implantable cardioverter …

Background Inappropriate therapy is a common adverse effect in patients with an
implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) that may be prevented by appropriate …

Background The implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) is highly effective in reducing
mortality among patients at risk for fatal arrhythmias, but inappropriate ICD activations are …

Inappropriate shock is a frequently seen clinical problem despite advanced technologies
used in modern implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) devices. Our aim was to …

Background A significant number of patients with an implantable cardioverter/defibrillator
(ICD) for primary prevention receive inappropriate shocks. Previous studies have reported a …

Background Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) programming to novel settings can
reduce the risk of inappropriate therapies. Objective The purpose of this study was to …

Background—The benefit of novel implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) programming
in reducing inappropriate ICD therapy and mortality was demonstrated in Multicenter …

The avoidance of inappropriate shock therapy is an important clinical issue in implantable
cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) patients. We retrospectively analyzed therapeutic events in …

Background In Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial–Reduce Inappropriate
Therapy (MADIT-RIT), high-rate cutoff (arm B) and delayed therapy (arm C) reduced the risk …

Background: Despite the benefits of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy,
