Author:	Pérez Rodon, Jordi; Doiny, David; Miranda, Berta; Rivas Gándara, Nuria; Roca Luque, Ivo; Francisco Pascual, Jaume; Lidón, Rosa Maria; García-Dorado, David; Moya Mitjans, Àngel
Abstract:	An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) lead dislodgement into the right atrium is a dangerous situation, particularly in patients in atrial fibrillation because atrial fibrillation can be sensed as ventricular fibrillation and true ventricular fibrillation induced with an inappropriate shock. In the presence of shocks, ICD interrogation should be performed as soon as possible.
