ProMRI (Phase B)

Clinical Safety of the ProMRI Pacemaker System when Used Under Specific MRI Conditions without Scan Exclusion Zone

Bailey, Heart Rhythm 2016

Study Design

  • Prospective, single-arm, non-randomized, multicenter study
  • Demonstrate the clinical safety of the ProMRI pacemaker system when used under specific MRI conditions
  • 245 patients at 31 centers in USA

Key result 1

SADE free rate: 99.6% free of MRI and pacing system related serious adverse device effects1


Key Result 2

Atrial pacing threshold: 100% of patients experienced < 0.5 V atrial pacing threshold increase post-MRI1


Key Result 3

Ventricular pacing threshold: 100% of patients experienced < 0.5 V ventricular pacing threshold increase post-MRI1

P-wave sensing attenuation: 98.2% of patients experienced P-waves above 1.5 mV — 99.4% of patients experienced < 50% P-wave sensing attenuation

R-wave sensing attenuation: 100% of patients experienced R-waves above 5 mV — 100% of patients experienced < 50% R-wave sensing attenuation

Clinical Relevance

  • The data demonstrate and support the clinical safety and efficacy of the ProMRI pacemaker system when used under specific MRI conditons
