Smart meters and routers radiofrequency disturbances study with pacemakers and implantable cardiac defibrillators.

Background: There is no scientific literature that examines radiofrequency (RF) interference from Smart Meters with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). The objective of this in vitro study was to assess any potential interference with Medtronic CIEDs (Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA).
