It was reported that the mri technologists had tried putting the ins into mri mode and were seeing a code 2531 2212 22 0000.Rep wanted to know what the code meant.Technical services informed the manufacturing representative (rep) that code was indicating a short circuit was detected during the mri impedance test.Caller noted that they drove to the mri center and ran the impedance test twice with their tablet, and it came back normal.With a reading of 319 ohms.However, when they went back to the suite to put the patient into mri mode, contact 9 came back with an impedance of 52 ohms and it so they could not put it in mri mode.Caller wanted to know how to avoid this in the future.Agent reviewed that the tablet can run at a higher level versus the handset.But there isn't a way to avoid an intermittent impedance.In this case, it was a good thing that impedance was checked multiple times.Contact 9 isn't being used in programming so there was no impact on patient's therapy.The issue was not resolved through troubleshooting.The patient was redirected to their healthcare provider to further address the issue.
