A case report of inappropriate inhibition of ventricular pacing due to a unique pacemaker electrogram storage feature.

To rectify the issue, the ventricular lead sensitivity value was increased from 0.9 mV to 1.2 mV. No instances of inappropriate ventricular pacing inhibition were noted on follow-up. To our knowledge, this is a rare case of inappropriate ventricular pacing inhibition caused by a combination of PPM self-adjusting sensitivity algorithm and oversensing every 1 h and 30 s from an amplified storage capacitor. Physicians should be aware of this possible complication and differentiate it from device or lead malfunction.
