The latest phase of the ProMRI® clinical study aims to determine whether ICD patients can safely undergo MRI scans with an exclusion zone. The study will recruit and evaluate 172 patients at 35 U.S. investigational centers. The ICD ProMRI® with exclusion zone study is designed to confirm the safety and efficacy of BIOTRONIK's Iforia devices, with Setrox and Linoxsmart leads during an MRI scan. All the devices in the study are currently commercially available, but still await FDA approval for use in the MRI environment.
The Iforia platform is BIOTRONIK's latest generation of ICDs offering uncompromised longevity and daily monitoring through BIOTRONIK Home Monitoring®. The BIOTRONIK-sponsored trial (NCT01761162) has been in U.S. subject recruitment since March 2013.
