MR Conditional
Important alert
- Patients with abandoned cardiac hardware including leads, lead extenders, or lead adaptors are contraindicated for an MRI scan.
- Patients with non-MR Conditional implantable devices are contraindicated for an MRI scan.
- Patients with a St. Jude Medical™ SJM Confirm™ ICM that has been implanted for less than 6 weeks are contraindicated for an MRI scan.
- Patients with a St. Jude Medical SJM Confirm ICM must not be on his or her side within the MRI bore. This position is contraindicated for an MRI scan.
- Use of local transmit-only coils or local transmit and receive coils placed directly over the device has not been studied and such use is contraindicated.
1Pre-scan checks
- Check that the SJM Confirm™ patient activator is not in the MRI room.
- Check that the patient is not on his or her side within the MRI bore
- Check that the patient has no other cardiac devices, leads or abandoned leads
- Check that the device has been implanted for more than 6 weeks
- Check that the programmer is not in the MRI room.
2MRI scan conditions
1.5 T
| Scanner type | Closed bore, cylindrical magnet |
|---|---|
| Gradient slew rate | • Maximum gradient slew rate of 200 T/m/s per axis• A gradient field with a maximum peak rate of change of magnetic field (dB/dt) of 125 T/s (≤ 200 T/m/s) per axis |
| Whole-body SAR | Whole body Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) less than or equal to 2.0 W/kg (excluding Canada) |
| Scan region / position conditions | The uninterrupted duration of active scanning (when radio frequency (RF) and gradients are on) over the chest during MRI must not exceed 60 minutes |
3RF COIL / RF excitation
| RF coil | Use of local transmit-only coils or local transmit and receive coils placed directly over the device has not been studied and such use is contraindicated. |

4Monitoring & emergency response
- Proper patient monitoring must be provided during the MRI scan.
- Verbal communication with the patient during the MRI scan is recommended.
- Keep an external defibrillator available during the MRI scan.
5Other information
- Do not bring the SJM Patient Activator model DM2100A or the Merlin™ Patient Care System (PCS) Model 3650 into the MRI environment (MR scanner magnet room), as defined by the American College of Radiology. They are MR Unsafe.
- Patients may feel a mild tugging or vibration sensation at the site of the device implant while in or near the MRI scanner.
- Significant image distortion can result from the presence of the monitoring device within the field of view. Image artifacts and distortion resulting from the presence of the monitoring device within the field of view must be considered when selecting the field of view and imaging parameters. These factors must also be considered when interpreting the MRI images.
These conditions are based on the source document shown below (revision and date). Before scanning, verify the patient's complete system (device, leads, and any other implants) against the latest manufacturer labeling.
