What type of devices should a person with a pacemaker be cautious about? Cardiology Basics

Artificial pacemakers are cardiac implantable electronic devices which give tiny electrical signals to the heart when the heart’s own pacemaker is not functioning well. Sinus node is the natural pacemaker of the heart, located in the upper part of right atrium near the orifice of superior vena cava. Being an electronic device, which functions on an in build battery, pacemaker function can be interfered by strong electrical and magnetic signals in the vicinity. This is known as electromagnetic interference of pacemakers. Moreover, modern pacemakers communicate with the equipment used for programming them using radio waves. This communication can also be interfered with by strong electromagnetic fields.
