Abstract: We report a case of an implant cardiac defibrillator (ICD) patient who an ICD implanted for ventricular fibrillation (VF) related to mitral valve prolapse. He has 2 episodes of VF in his device lives. First episode of VF in year 2016 was initiated after a pause related to the MVP™ algorithm with a critically timed PVC. MVP™ was turned off which prevented further VF episodes. However, MVP™ was turned back on at the device replacement in 2018. A second VF episode developed with similar mechanism in 2021 and MVP™ was subsequently turned off with no further VF recorded. This case highlights the importance of recognizing the mechanism of initiation of tachy-arrhythmia episodes and serves as an important reminder regarding optimization of device settings at the time of replacement.
