Summary
In the Czech republic was last year carried out 6 239 primoimplants pacemakers and 1 226 primoimplants cardioverter defibrillators. Electromagnetic interference is a risk of complications at the patiens with PM or ICD. It may cause of complete inhibition of the device. This can be the cause of syncope at the dependent patiens. Asynchronous stimulation without the perception of own heartbeat may cause malignant arhytmia or so called pacemaker tachycardia – rapid chambers stimulation leasing to the collapse of the circulation. At ICD it can lead to a false perception of tachycardia and inadequate shock therapy. The doctor should know this interference in order to learn the patient how to behave in normal life, which activities he doesn´t need to worry and what should be avoided. When considering the medical treatment it should always be evaluated the benefit of the patient and the risks.
