Ellenbogen Case 5 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The transcript discusses an issue detected in a remote monitoring strip from a patient with an ICD following a generator change three months prior. The options for addressing the finding include removing the ICD lead due to a possible fracture, reoperation for a sensing screw or header issue, investigating for electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, or determining that no further action is necessary. The text prompts choosing the appropriate management strategy for this situation.
