Electromagnetic compatibility of implantable neurostimulators to RFID emitters
BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to investigate electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of implantable neurostimulators with the emissions from radio frequency identification (RFID) emitters. METHODS Six active implantable neurostimulators with lead systems were tested for susceptibility to electromagnetic fields generated by 22 RFID emitters. These medical devices have been approved for...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Compatibility Testing of Implantable Neurostimulators Exposed to Metal Detectors
This paper presents results of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing of three implantable neurostimulators exposed to the magnetic fields emitted from several walk-through and hand-held metal detectors. The motivation behind this testing comes from numerous adverse event reports involving active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) and security systems that have been received by the Food a...
متن کاملAdhoc electromagnetic compatibility testing of non-implantable medical devices and radio frequency identification
BACKGROUND The use of radiofrequency identification (RFID) in healthcare is increasing and concerns for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) pose one of the biggest obstacles for widespread adoption. Numerous studies have documented that RFID can interfere with medical devices. The majority of past studies have concentrated on implantable medical devices such as implantable pacemakers and implan...
متن کاملElectromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
According to IEC 61000-1-1 [148], ―Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of an equipment or system to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without introducing intolerable electromagnetic disturbances to anything in that environment.‖ The first part of the definition, ―ability ............to function ............in its............ environment‖ fits well with the afor...
متن کاملAnalysis of induced electrical currents from magnetic field coupling inside implantable neurostimulator leads
BACKGROUND Over the last decade, the number of neurostimulator systems implanted in patients has been rapidly growing. Nearly 50, 000 neurostimulators are implanted worldwide annually. The most common type of implantable neurostimulators is indicated for pain relief. At the same time, commercial use of other electromagnetic technologies is expanding, making electromagnetic interference (EMI) of...
