11. What about wireless phone interference
with medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from
wireless phones can interact with some
electronic devices. For this reason, the
FDA helped develop a detailed test method
to measure Electro Magnetic Interference
(EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers
and defibrillators from wireless telephones.
This test method is now part of a standard
sponsored by the Association for the
Advancement of Medical Instrumentation
(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by
the FDA, medical device manufacturers,
and many other groups, was completed in
late 2000. This standard will allow
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from
wireless phone EMI. The FDA has tested
hearing aids for interference from handheld
wireless phones and helped develop a
voluntary standard sponsored by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronic
