Management of Patients with Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices Undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging – Proposal for Unified Hospital Protocol: Croatian Working Group on Arrhythmias and Cardiac Pacing
Abstract:For many years, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was contraindicated in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). Today, there is a growing amount of evidence that MRI can be performed safely in the majority of patients with CIEDs. Firstly, there are devices considered MRI conditional by manufacturers that are available on the market and secondly, there is clear evidence that even patients with MRI non-conditional devices can also undergo MRI safely. Protocols have been developed and recomme… Show more
