We report a case of a 85-year old woman with a preexisting Transcatheter Pacing System (TPS) (Micra™ VR, Fa. Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA) undergoing several external electrical cardioversions (CV) for symptomatic persistent atrial fibrillation (persAF). Due to bradycardia in the setting of atrial fibrillation a right apical TPS implantation was performed earlier. Four weeks prior to presentation at our facility an unsuccessful CV with a maximum biphasic energy level of 360J was performed, after which amiodarone was initiated. At the time of presentation three shocks with 100 J, 200 J and 360 J were delivered without sustained restoration of a stable sinus rhythm. Patches were in an anterior-posterior position. No complications and no significant changes in device parameters in comparison to the pre-acquired values were observed. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of an external CV in a patient with a TPS. External CV in patients with a preexisting TPS seems to be safe and feasible.
