iPods interfere with Pacemakers
A new report issued has stated that iPods can cause pacemakers to malfunction by interfering with the electromagnetic equipment monitoring the heart.
The study tested the effect of the portable music devices on 100 patients, whose mean age was 77, outfitted with pacemakers. Electrical interference was detected half of the time when the iPod was held just 2 inches from the patient’s chest for 5 to 10 seconds.
In some cases, the iPods caused interference when held 18 inches from the chest. Interfering with the telemetry equipment caused the device to misread the heart’s pacing and in one case caused the pacemaker to stop functioning altogether.
“A new report issued has stated that iPods can cause pacemakers to malfunction by interfering with the electromagnetic equipment monitoring the heart.” wow, so cool, does iphone will also has this function?
