TV Receivers

Can the remote TV device that operates on radio waves to change tv channels effect your pacemaker? My tv receiver is a dual unit to operate two tv's. Any information is appreciated.

TV Remote & Pacemaker

Have no fear, your TV remote will not have any affect on your Pacemaker.

That should be the case, but Pacemakers being Pacemakers you can always play it safe and keep the remote at least 6" from your Pacemaker to be certain it does nothing to harm your Pacemaker.

You know you're wired when...

Your signature looks like an EKG.
