LAKE OSWEGO, Ore., May 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- BIOTRONIK today announced the availability of the first FDA approved cardiac rhythm management (CRM) devices with technology that automatically recognizes when a patient enters an MRI environment. MRI AutoDetect is another example of BIOTRONIK's commitment to helping physicians and hospitals care for patients beyond the implant.
BIOTRONIK's MRI AutoDetect technology ensures patients with CRM devices can safely undergo MRI scans while minimizing programming burdens for hospitals. Once activated by a physician, MRI AutoDetect can automatically recognize when the patient enters an MRI environment and convert the device to MRI mode. When the scan is complete, MRI AutoDetect automatically returns the device to its permanent program. Physicians can program MRI AutoDetect to be active for up to 14 days, allowing patients unprecedented flexibility to undergo, reschedule or repeat MRI scans as needed during the set timeframe. MRI AutoDetect is currently available on BIOTRONIK's newest line of CRM devices, including the Ilivia series for tachycardia.
At BIOTRONIK, Inc., we move forward with courage for physicians, health systems, caregivers and patients. We never lose sight of the fact that the work we do today will change a life tomorrow.MRI AutoDetect is currently available on BIOTRONIK’s newest line of CRM devices, including the Ilivia series for tachycardia.
