MEDICAL SAFETY
Garrett Metal Detectors makes every effort to ensure its products are safe for use. Extensive research by Garrett
has produced no information which would indicate that its products have any adverse effects on medical
implants, pregnancy, recording media or magnetic strips. Garrett cooperates with medical device manufactur-
ers and agencies such as the United States Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada as a means of
assuring product safety. The electromagnetic fields produced by Garrett products are similar to those encoun-
tered in the daily environment and meet U.S. and International standards for electromagnetic emissions.
Garrett recognizes that certain medical devices may have additional requirements which may require special
care. Any recommendations or directives issued by personal physicians or medical device manufacturers
should be followed. If, for any reason, (e.g. doctors orders, etc.), a patron objects to being scanned with a metal
detector, it is recommended that alternative procedures be used.
The following should be considered when developing a security checkpoint screening plan:
•
Traffic Flow
- Traffic flow should remain unobstructed as a means of minimizing the time a per-
son remains within the archway of a walk-through metal detector.
•
Alternative Screening
- Alternative screening methods such as scanning with a hand held
metal detector, hand searching or denial of access should be clearly defined in checkpoint
screening procedures as approved alternatives to screening with the walk-through metal detec-
tor.
•
Personnel Training
- Security screening personnel should be instructed in the care of persons
with special medical needs and use of alternative screening methods that meet the requirements
of medical practitioners or medical device manufacturers.
