ProMRI

Phase B

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

Study Design

  • Prospective, single-arm, non-ramdomized, multicenter

SADE free rate

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


Atrial pacing threshold

100% of patients experienced


Ventricular pacing threshold

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

Clinical Relevance

  • Data demonstrates and supports the clinical safety and efficacy of the ProMRI pacemaker system when used under specific MRI conditons
