Pseudo-Electrical Storm in Patients with Implanted Cardioverter Defibrillator

The Electrical Storm indicates cardiac electrical instability manifested by several episodes of ventricular tachyarrhythmias within a short time. Pseudo-ES is defined as recurrent inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator discharges over 24 hours. Far from being a minor complication, Pseudo-ES is usually physical and psychological harmful and potentially lethal.
