Summary
This study looked at whether MRI scans are safe for people who have broken or unused wires (leads) from pacemakers or defibrillators still in their heart. About 18 adults with these wires who needed an MRI for medical reasons were monitored for any side effects like chest pain or irregular heartbeats during and after the scan. The goal was to gather data to help doctors and insurance companies decide if MRI is safe in this situation.
