Patient Compensation After Surgery
As a participant in this clinical trial, you are agreeing to annual follow up visits for 10 years after surgery. You will be compensated with a Cash Bonus and Trust Fund which varies based upon your procedure. Patients who are receiving Primary Breast Augmentation and Revision Augmentation are in Group 1, while patients who are receiving Primary Breast Reconstruction and Revision Reconstruction are in Group 2.
Group 1: Compensation for Patients Undergoing Primary Breast Augmentation and Revision Augmentation Surgery
Patients participating in the Study will receive the following compensation:
- Paid consultations for all follow-up visits with their treating study doctors, to evaluate the Motiva Implants ™.
- A cash bonus as described in the table below, to be paid to the Patient after every follow-up visit:
- After the first annual follow up visit (Year 1), Motiva USA will deposit into the trust fund the full amount of $750, corresponding to the total of all trust fund installments, according to the table below. With every annual follow up visit the patient will vest the corresponding amount.

Schedule for Patient Visits Following Surgery
Following surgery, patients will return to our office for follow up visits for 10 years. The schedule for these visits is as follows:
MRIs After Surgery
The FDA recommends that all patients should have regular MRI screenings throughout their lifetime to screen for silent rupture, even if they are not having any apparent problems. Patients should go for their first MRI 3 years after surgery, and then repeatedly every 2 years following.
MRI Sub-Study
As part of the Motiva Clinical Trial, 250 patients will be divided into 7 MRI sites to participate in an MRI Sub-Study. The MRI Sub-Study population will be a subset of the treated population selected to obtain MRIs at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 years. It will be used for the analysis of rupture. Motiva USA will cover the cost of the patients MRIs. Any patient not chosen as part of the Sub-Study will be responsible for the cost of their own MRIs.
