This paper presents an extensive EMC analysis of the pacing activity of an Implantable Cardiac Medical Device (ICMD), namely an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD). The proposed procedure (Pacing Counter, PC) consists of monitoring the pacing activity of the ICD under test continuously, by counting the number of pacing events occurring over a given time horizon. As a result, their variations...
An analysis of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) between a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) device and an Implantable Cardiac Defibrillator (ICD) is presented in this paper. In particular, the analysis focuses on the effects of EMI produced by an RFID reader on ICD operation. Thus, a brief overview of both ICD and RFID devices is presented at first. Subsequently, several experimental tests are...
A novel electromagnetic characterization of Implantable Cardiac Medical Devices (ICMDs) is presented in this paper. It has been developed in order to determine the immunity level of ICMDs against Radio-Frequency (RF) interference and consists of several Sensitivity Tests, which have been performed in accordance with EMC international standards. The tests have been carried out in an anechoic RF chamber,...
