Exposure to pacemakers of RFEE depends on the proximity of the mobile phone type device.
Recommendations suggest the minimum distance between pacemaker and mobile phone
type device to be in the range 10
– 20 cm.
•
Exposure to pacemakers of RFEE depends on the RFEE emission levels of the mobile phone
type device.
•
The effects of interference due to exposure to RFEE in pacemakers are temporary. Once the
source of RFEE emissions is removed the pacemaker reverts back to correct functionality.
•
Mobile phone based devices can potentially cause interference with pacemakers when in use
on a call and when in standby, but not when turned off.
•
Those at highest risk are individuals who are completely dependent on pacemakers (those
individuals that cannot generate spontaneous cardiac rhythm).
Part of the conclusion in the above mentioned testing is that due to i
ts low SAR value ‘There is very
low health risk for persons with cardiac pacemakers or other active medical implants’
Regardless, if in any doubt the wearer should seek advice from their doctor or the manufacturer of
their pacemaker.

Risks Associated with Pregnancy
Referring to the previous statement above on Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
Due to the relatively low maximum SAR value, SoloProtect ID should not pose any risk to individuals
whilst pregnant. Any user of SoloProtect ID who registers any concern about using SoloProtect ID
whilst pregnant should seek advice from their GP.’
