Description
Summary:In all patients, the reason for inappropriateness was the more pronounced T-wave during type 1 BrS-ECG (Figure 1). [...]the primary, secondary, and alternate vectors were generally less often appropriate during the development of a type 1 BrS-ECG, with the primary sensing vector being appropriate in 18 of 21 patients at baseline and in 15 of 21 patients during type 1 BrS-ECG. [...]critical analysis is necessary to ensure appropriate sensing and to prevent inappropriate sensing in BrS patients with an S-ICD.
