The increasing use of implantable electronic devices such as cardiac pacemakers and neurostimulators means that they are being increasingly encountered in endoscopy departments. The electromagnetic fields generated during electrosurgery and with magnetic imaging systems have the potential to interfere with such devices. The authors present a case that highlights some of the steps necessary for minimising risk, review the evidence and summarise the currently available guidance.
植入式电子设备如心脏起搏器和神经刺激器的使用日益增加,这意味着在内镜科室中越来越多地会遇到这些设备。电外科手术过程中以及与磁共振成像系统产生的电磁场有可能干扰此类设备。作者介绍了一个突出说明将风险降至最低所需的一些步骤的病例,回顾了相关证据并总结了当前可用的指南。
