Wireless communication and data transmission are playing an increasing role in the critical care environment. Early anecdotal reports of electromagnetic interference (EMI) with intensive care unit (ICU) equipment resulted in many institutions banning these devices. An increasing literature database has more clearly defined the risks of EMI. Restrictions to the use of mobile devices are being lifted, and it has been suggested that the benefits of improved communication may outweigh the small risks. However, increased use of cellular phones and ever changing communication technologies require ongoing vigilance by healthcare device manufacturers, hospitals and device users, to prevent potentially hazardous events due to EMI.
无线通信和数据传输在重症监护环境中发挥着越来越重要的作用。早期关于重症监护病房（ICU）设备受到电磁干扰（EMI）的传闻报道导致许多机构禁止使用这些设备。越来越多的文献数据库更明确地界定了电磁干扰的风险。对移动设备使用的限制正在解除，有人认为改善通信带来的好处可能超过微小的风险。然而，手机使用的增加以及通信技术的不断变化，要求医疗设备制造商、医院和设备用户持续保持警惕，以防止因电磁干扰引发潜在的危险事件。
