Summary

A unique single-lead dual-chamber implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) system (produced by Biotronik, Germany) features a conventional electrode in the ventricle (anchored in the ventricular apex) and a floating electrode (ring on the lead body) in the atrium, capable of sensing atrial electrical signals. The purpose of this study is to determine whether this system detects a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia (e.g. atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia) in the equivalent manner as conventional dual-lead dual-chamber ICDs using two separate electrodes anchored in the ventricle and in the atrium, respectively.
