Abstract

We present a case series of five patients reporting abnormal automatic mode switching (AMS) episodes during routinary cardiac defibrillator (ICD) and pacemaker (PM) follow-up. This non-previously described phenomenon was reported to St. Jude Medical (Abbott) Technical Support that confirmed the inappropriate automatic mode switching.
