Shock whilst gardening--implantable defibrillators & lawn mowers.

G Von Olshausen1, C Lennerz, C Grebmer, H Pavaci, C Kolb.   

Abstract

Electromagnetic interference with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) can cause inappropriate shock delivery or temporary inhibition of ICD functions. We present a case of electromagnetic interference between a lawn mower and an ICD resulting in an inappropriate discharge of the device due to erroneous detection of ventricular fibrillation.
