EMI can affect the performance of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (CIEDs), leading to problems like inappropriate therapy and inaccurate device functioning.
An experimental loop antenna was used to measure EMI from a Tesla Model 3 electric vehicle while charging, testing in various locations inside and outside the car.
Results showed significant EMI signals, particularly near the cup holder, which could disrupt Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators (S-ICDs), indicating the need for further research on this interference.
