Brief summary
This study is looking at the safety and efficacy of using MRIs with patients who have cardiac implantable electronic devices.
Detailed description
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a critical diagnostic tool known for its non-invasive nature and high-resolution imaging capabilities. However, its safety in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), particularly those with mixed-lead systems, remains a significant clinical concern. This report investigates the safety and efficacy of MRI in such patients, where generators and leads originate from different manufacturers and are not officially deemed MRI-conditional.
Interventions
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a vital diagnostic tool in modern medicine due to its ability to produce detailed images of the body's internal structures without using ionizing radiation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of Changes in Device Battery Voltage (Volts) | Immediately Prior to MRI and Immediately after MRI | report Device Battery Voltage (in Volts) prior to the MRI and after the MRI and determine if there was a change in voltage greater than 10% from the initial measurement to the final measurement. |
| Evaluation of Changes in Lead Impedance (Ohms) | Immediately Prior to MRI and Immediately after MRI | report lead impedance (in Ohms) prior to the MRI and after the MRI and determine if there is a change in impedence greater than 20% from the initial measurement to the final measurement. |
| Evaluation of Changes in Lead Threshold (Voltage) Before and After MRI | Immediately Prior to MRI and Immediately after MRI | report lead threshold in (voltage) prior to MRI and after the MRI and determine if there is a change greater than10% from the initial measurement to the final measurement. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of Changes in Patient Clinical Outcomes (Rhythm, Symptoms, Cardiac Arrest, or Death) Before and After MRI | Immediately Prior to MRI and Immediately after MRI | We will review medical records and determine if there were any observed change in patient rhythm, symptoms (such as chest pain, syncope), cardiac arrest or death after the MRI was completed. |
