Using Household Items with an Implanted Pacemaker/ICD. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) explained

Have you ever asked yourself "Can I use this household item safely with my implanted device?" Microwave ovens, power drills, electric blankets, lawn mowers and more can all be used with just a little bit of knowledge and precaution. Learn how the items we use in our homes every day generate electromagnetic energy, or electromagnetic interference (EMI) and how that interference can interact with our devices if we aren't careful. Being safe is easy, and we can safely use 99% of the household items around us with just a little precaution. Learn about EM fields, how they interact with our devices, and what precautions we can take to live safely, free from fear. ***Please note, I am not a medical professional giving medical device. For more information google the name of your medical device manufacturer + the term "electromagnetic compatibility guide". There you will find a published guide your device manufacturer has created to help you better understand which items you can use safely and which items require a bit more care. Much of the information from this video was taken from the EMC guides produced by Medtronic, Boston Scientific and Abbott (formerly St. Jude).
