Pacemakers, Implantable Defibrillators and 5G Technology: What We Need to Know

Abstract: Pacemakers (PM) and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are active implantable medical devices (AIMD) needed in case of cardiac arrhythmias. Given their potentially life-sustaining nature, the interaction between any source of electromagnetic field and these AIMDs is an ongoing concern of patients, industry, and regulators. According to the current regulatory framework, the required immunity of PM and ICD provides a reasonable unperturbed behavior in the presence of cell phones and base stations that… Show more

“…These benefits include the capability to remotely monitor chronic illnesses [1], [38]. There is a campaign to integrate the use of 5G technology into international standards for future implantable medical devices, such as pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators [39], [40]. This study will not further examine the external factors contributing to the slight decline in 2023.…”
