O objetivo deste estudo é estimar o possível efeito do rádio celular em marcapassos cardíacos implantáveis em elevadores. Anteriormente, investigamos a EMI do marcapasso no elevador, examinando a distribuição do campo E do plano horizontal na altura esperada para marcapassos implantados dentro de elevadores. Neste artigo, apresentamos nosso método para estimar o impacto da EMI em marcapassos cardíacos implantáveis usando distribuições de EMF dentro da região do corpo humano na qual os marcapassos são implantados. Simulações de um fantasma humano em um elevador são realizadas e histogramas são derivados das distribuições EMF resultantes. Os resultados computados das intensidades de campo são comparados com um determinado nível de referência determinado a partir da distância máxima de interferência obtida experimentalmente de marca-passos cardíacos implantáveis. Isto nos permite realizar uma avaliação quantitativa do impacto da EMI nos marcapassos por transmissão de rádio celular. Este artigo utiliza um modelo numérico fantasma desenvolvido com base em um homem adulto europeu. As simulações avaliam EMI em marcapassos cardíacos implantáveis em três bandas de frequência. Como resultado, as intensidades calculadas do campo E são suficientemente baixas para causar mau funcionamento do marca-passo na região examinada.

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to estimate the possible effect of cellular radio on implantable cardiac pacemakers in elevators. We previously investigated pacemaker EMI in elevator by examining the E-field distribution of horizontal plane at the height of expected for implanted pacemakers inside elevators. In this paper, we introduce our method for estimating EMI impact to implantable cardiac pacemakers using EMF distributions inside the region of the human body in which pacemakers are implanted. Simulations of a human phantom in an elevator are performed and histograms are derived from the resulting EMF distributions. The computed results of field strengths are compared with a certain reference level determined from experimentally obtained maximum interference distance of implantable cardiac pacemakers. This enables us to carry out a quantitative evaluation of the EMI impact to pacemakers by cellular radio transmission. This paper uses a numerical phantom model developed based on an European adult male. The simulations evaluate EMI on implantable cardiac pacemakers in three frequency bands. As a result, calculated E-field strengths are sufficiently low to cause the pacemaker to malfunction in the region examined.
