MRI My Pacemaker

The British Heart Foundation funded a team at Bart’s Health NHS Trust and University College London to expand the scope of the MRI MyPacemaker campaign, ensuring that patients with cardiac devices have the same access to MRI as everyone else.

Overview of the project

In 2020, the BHF awarded a grant of £130,000 through its Hope for Hearts fund to Dr Anish Bhuva and team at Bart's Health NHS Trust and University College London, to improve referrer awareness of MRI MyPacemaker, provide patient support, and develop and demonstrate feasibility of a cloud-based referrals platform for MRI MyPacemaker.
