For determining the defibrillation threshold, the verification technique was used.
Effects of implantable cardioverter defibrillator implantation and shock application on biochemical markers of myocardial damage
Since early experiences in ICD insertion led to sudden death due to ineffective defibrillation shock delivery, defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing became a standard of care for the elementary/primitive devices [7].
No routine defibrillation threshold testing in all implantable cardioverter-defibrilator recipients--Still a question?
Verification of defibrillation efficacy by defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing during ICD implantation is the current standard.
Defibrillation threshold testing and neurologic outcome
In addition to adverse events, antiarrhythmic drugs can interfere with the device function by increasing, rather than decreasing, the defibrillation threshold (JAMA 2006;295:211-3).
