Safety Guidelines
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 device EMI. The FDA has
tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless
devices and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored
by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE).
This standard specifies test methods and performance
requirements for hearing aids and wireless devices so that
no interference occurs when a person uses a 'compatible'
device and a 'compatible' hearing aid at the same time.
This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000. The FDA
continues to monitor the use of wireless devices for possible
interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful
interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing
to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
