Azygos vein lead implantation for high defibrillation thresholds in implantable cardioverter defibrillator placement.

Naga Va Kommuri1, Sri Lakshmi S Kollepara, E Saulitis, Ma Siddiqui.   

Abstract

Evaluation of defibrillation threshold is a standard of care during implantation of implantable cardioverter defibrillator. High defibrillation thresholds are often encountered and pose a challenge to electrophysiologists to improve the defibrillation threshold. We describe a case series where defibrillation thresholds were improved after implanting a defibrillation lead in the azygos vein.
