companies that sold devices that
claimed to protect wireless phone users
from radiation with making false and
unsubstantiated claims.
According to FTC, these defendants
lacked a reasonable basis to
substantiate their claim.
What about wireless phone
interference with
medical equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from
wireless phones can interact with some
electronic devices. For this reason, FDA
helped develop a detailed test method to
measure electromagnetic interference
(EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers
and defibrillators from wireless
telephones. This test method is now part
of a standard sponsored by the
Association for the Advancement of
Medical instrumentation (AAMI). The
final draft, a joint effort by FDA, medical
device manufacturers, and many other
groups, was completed in late 2000.
This standard will allow manufacturers
to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and
defibrillators are safe from wireless
phone EMI. FDA has tested wireless
phones and helped develop a voluntary
standard sponsored by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE). This standard specifies test
methods and performance requirements
