Key result
The Medtronic CapSureFix MRI 5086 pacing lead was associated with a 1.4% incidence of cardiac perforation compared to 0% with the 5076 non-MRI lead, a difference that was not statistically significant.
Why the study?
Does the Medtronic CapSureFix MRI 5086 pacing lead increase the incidence of cardiac perforation and lead dislodgement compared to the 5076 non-MRI lead in patients undergoing pacemaker implantation?

Caution advised with 5086 leads in elderly patients; leaves open whether MRI-conditional leads increase perforation risk.

Yes
Does the Medtronic CapSureFix MRI 5086 pacing lead increase the incidence of cardiac perforation and lead dislodgement compared to the 5076 non-MRI lead in patients undergoing pacemaker implantation?
Absolute Event Rate: 1.4% vs 0%
p-value: p=0.084
The incidence of cardiac perforation and lead dislodgement within 30 days was not statistically different between the MRI-conditional 5086 lead and the non-MRI 5076 lead, though numerical differences in perforation suggest caution in elderly patients.
Kwon et al. (2016) conducted a cohort in Permanent pacemaker implantation (n=482). Medtronic CapSureFix MRI 5086 pacing lead vs. Medtronic CapSureFix Novus 5076 non-MRI pacing lead was evaluated on Incidence of cardiac perforation within 30 days after pacemaker implantation (p=0.084). The Medtronic CapSureFix MRI 5086 pacing lead was associated with a 1.4% incidence of cardiac perforation compared to 0% with the 5076 non-MRI lead, a difference that was not statistically significant.
