title: [Electromagnetic interference of electronic devices in workers with AICD].
abstract: The Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators and the Pacemakers are devices that produce electric signals and consequently they are touchy to the electromagnetic interferences. This touchiness may cause a temporary or permanent device's malfunction both for short, but of high intensity, and prolonged exposures. Considered the wide diffusion in the job's environments of the technologies based on the electromagnetic waves, the aim of the study is identify the presence of electronic equipment's electromagnetic interferences in AICD bearing workers. The last aim is give to the AICD bearing workers more detailed information about the prevention of inappropriate AICD shocks.
