摘要
Stored intracardiac electrograms provided by third-generation ICDs have proved their use in the analysis of the mechanism of tachydysrhythmic events. There are cases in which the analysis of ventricular electrograms is insufficient for the elucidation of certain dysrhythmias. The availability of atrial electrograms provided by dual chamber ICDs improves the diagnostic capability of electrogram analysis and could prove most useful especially in complex dysrhythmias.
