Abstract:

Occupational health and safety framework identifies workers with active implantable medical devices (AIMD) as a particularly sensitive risk group that must be protected against the dangers caused by the interference of electromagnetic fields (EMF). Among the work environments in which EMF levels potentially exceed the Guidelines limits there are the beauty and physiotherapy centers. The aim of this paper is to investigate the potential risk for cardiac AIMD holders when exposed to four EMF sources that can be encountered in the work environment of aesthetic and/or physiotherapy centers.
