Pacemakers
and
Other
Medical
Devices
Studies
have
shown
that
there
may
be
a
potential
interaction
between
mobile
devices
and
normal
pacemaker
operation.
The
pacemaker
industry
recommends
that
people
with
pacemakers
follow
these
guidelines
to
minimize
any
risk
of
interference
with
pacemaker
operation:
•
Always
maintain
a
distance
of6
inches
(15
cm)
between
the
pacemaker
and
any
mobile
device
that
is
turned
on.
•
Store
the
device
on
the
opposite
side
of
the
pacemaker.
Do
not
carry
the
device
in
a
breast
pocket.
3
•If
you
think
that
interference
may
be
occurring,
tum
off
the
device
immediately.
F
or
other
medical
devices,
consult
with
your
physician
or
the
manufacturer
to
determine
if
your
mobile
device
may
interfere
with
the
medical
device,
and
to
determine
any
precautions
that
you
can
take
to
avoid
interference.
