FDA clears St. Jude's MR-conditional spinal stimulation system

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared St. Jude Medical's Protégé MRI spinal cord stimulation system, as well as the company's 60-cm Octrode percutaneous leads for use with the device.

The Protégé MRI system is the smallest MR-conditional spinal cord stimulation implantable pulse generator available in the U.S., and it's the only one on the market that allows patients implanted with the device to safely undergo head and extremity MRI scans, according to the firm.
