Abstract

U našemu svakodnevnom životu postalo je gotovo nemoguće ne biti u interakciji, aktivno ili pasivno, s različitim uređajima koji su izvori elektromagnetskih polja i kao takvi potencijalni uzroci elektromagnetske interferencije (EMI). Bolesnici s ugrađenim kardiovaskularnim implantabilnim uređajima (CIED) za liječenje aritmija čine specifičnu rizičnu skupinu na koju ovakvi signali mogu štetno utjecati. Valja imati na umu da je opseg ovoga problema (EMI u bolesnika s CIED-om) relativno malen – ali značajan; a kada se dogodi, u većini slučajeva, prolazne je prirode i lako se može izbjeći. No, ističe se važnost detaljnog razgovora s bolesnikom koji ima CIED, imajući na umu njegove specifične situacije i potrebe. Liječnici bi trebali biti svjesni i upoznati s najčešćim interakcijama EMI-ja i CIED-a.<br />In our daily life it has become almost impossible not to interact, either actively or passively, with various devices that are sources of electromagnetic fields and thereby a potential cause of electromagnetic interference (EMI). Patients with cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIED) for treatment of arrhythmias represent a specific risk group that can be adversely affected by these signals. The scope of this problem (EMI in CIED recipients) is relatively small – but relevant, and when issues occur, in most cases they are of a transitory nature and can easily be avoided. However, it is of outmost importance to discuss the issue with patients that have a CIED, bearing in mind their specific situations and needs. Physicians should be aware of and familiarized with the most common interactions between EMI and CIED.
