Electromagnetic interference with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators at power frequency: an in vivo study.
BACKGROUND The number of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) for the prevention of sudden cardiac death is continuing to increase. Given the technological complexity of ICDs, it is of critical importance to identify and control possible harmful electromagnetic interferences between various sources of electromagnetic fields and ICDs in daily life and occupational environments. METHO...
متن کاملiPad2® Use in Patients With Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators Causes Electromagnetic Interference: The EMIT Study
BACKGROUND Over 140 million iPads(®) have been sold worldwide. The iPad2(®), with magnets embedded in its frame and Smart Cover and 3G cellular data capability, can potentially cause electromagnetic interference in implantable cardioverter defibrillators. This can lead to potentially life-threatening situations in patients. The goal of this study was to determine whether the iPad2(®) can cause ...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Interference in Patients with Implanted Cardioverter-Defibrillators and Implantable Loop Recorders
Introduction: Modern life exposes us all to an ever-increasing number of potential sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and patients with Implantable rhythm devices (IRD) like pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators or implantable loop recorders often ask about the use of microwave ovens, walking through airport metal detectors and the use of cellular phones. Electromagneti...
متن کاملImplantable transvenous cardioverter-defibrillators.
BACKGROUND Implantable transvenous cardioverter-defibrillators offer a significant opportunity to decrease procedural morbidity and medical costs in the care of patients with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias who otherwise would have required a sternotomy or thoracotomy for device insertion. The purpose of this study was to examine prospectively the safety, efficacy, and limitations asso...
متن کاملImplantable cardioverter-defibrillators.
N Engl J Med 2003;349:1836-47. Copyright © 2003 Massachusetts Medical Society. espite advances in emergency medical systems and in techniques of resuscitation, sudden death from cardiac arrest remains a major public health problem. Most persons who have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest do not survive. 1,2 Those who are resuscitated may have severe, long-term cognitive impairment and motor impa...
