Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless
devices):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent
research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the
interference between portable wireless devices and
implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians
that:
Pacemaker patients
• Should keep wireless devices at least six inches from the
pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless devices directly over the
pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned
ON.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with
pacemakers from other persons using wireless devices.
