Models with the same MRI conditions

LSP112V, LSP201A, LSP202V, LSP203A

The MRI conditions shown are based on the manufacturer's official guidelines.
Do not apply them to models not listed above; search for that model separately. Search models →

Important alert

  • Do not scan: The LSP112V or LSP202V device (if implanted) is implanted at a site other than the right ventricle
  • Do not scan: The LSP201A or LSP203A device (if implanted) is implanted at a site other than the right atrium
  • Do not scan: Any patient position in the scanner other than supine or prone, with patient's arm at his or her sides
  • Do not scan: Patients with other non-MR Conditional implants (for example, abandoned leads)

1Pre-scan checks

    • Review the patient's ID card or the MRI Summary Report (generated by the Merlin™ PCS or the Merlin™ 2 PCS) to obtain the model number of the implanted device(s). Check that the model number is MR Conditional.
    • Refer to the MRI Summary Report generated by the Merlin PCS or the Merlin 2 PCS. Confirm these settings with the device management physician or clinician.
    • Device programming is required for safe scanning: MRI Settings must be enabled before start of scan.

    3RF COIL / RF excitation

    RF coil• 1.5T: Integrated Whole Body RF Transmit Coil or Detachable RF Transmit-Receive coils (Head, Lower Extremity, or Upper Extremity) with RF excitation: Circularly polarized (CP)• 1.5T: RF Receive Coil Type: Any receive coil may be used• 3.0T: Integrated Whole Body RF Transmit Coil with RF excitation: Circularly polarized (CP) / Multichannel-2 (MC-2)• 3.0T: RF Receive Coil Type: Any receive coil may be used

    4Monitoring & emergency response

      • Proper patient monitoring must be provided during the MRI scan. This includes continuous monitoring of the patient's hemodynamic function.
      • Since the MR environment may interfere with the patient monitoring system, it is recommended that more than one of the following systems be used: electrocardiography / pulse oximetry / noninvasive blood pressure measurements
      • If the patient's hemodynamic function is compromised during the MRI scan, discontinue the MRI scan and take the proper measures to restore the patient's hemodynamic function.
      • Verbal communication with the patient during the MRI scan is recommended.
      • Keep an external defibrillator available during the MRI scan.

      5Post-scan checks

        • Once the MRI scan is complete, MRI Settings must be disabled by the patient's device management physician or clinician using the Merlin™ PCS or the Merlin™ 2 PCS and Aveir™ Link Module.

        6Other information

        • MR Conditional labeling applies to single-chamber and dual-chamber configurations.
        • Scanning patients who have other MR Conditional implants is acceptable provided all MR Conditional requirements for each implanted device are met.
        • Scanning patients who have abandoned MR Conditional leadless pacemaker devices in the same chamber is also acceptable provided all MR Conditional requirements for each implanted device are met. Abandoned leadless pacemaker devices must be deactivated.
        • Do not bring any external control devices, such as a Merlin™ PCS, Merlin™ 2 PCS, or Aveir™ Link Module, into the scanner magnet room (Zone IV). These devices are considered MR Unsafe.
        • The presence of this system may produce an image artifact. Some manipulation of scan parameters may be required to compensate for the artifact.

        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.
