St. Jude Gains CE Mark for Nanostim Leadless Pacemaker

St. Jude Medical has won CE Mark certification for magnetic resonance conditional labeling for its Nanostim leadless pacemaker.

With the approval, patients with a Nanostim leadless pacemaker can safely undergo full-body MRI scans. The approval broadens the company’s existing portfolio of MRI compatible products. The pacemaker is fully retrievable and is 10 percent the size of a traditional pacemaker. — Anisa Jibrell
