Prius

Does anyone here drive a Prius? I've just received a pacemaker and am a little worried about the electric motor.

Prius Electric Motor

I dont think you need worry. Toyota will have thought about this one. They would get sued if there was a problem in this department. Just dont open the bonnet and lay your chest in. Thats difficult as the car is moving when the electric motor is running. You might attract the attention of the local cops! It takes a really powerful electric field to intefere with your pacemaker. And it has to be really close to the pacemaker site. Dont put a device with a powerful magnet over your site as this might set your pacemaker to switch to the magnet rate whilst the magnetic field is near your pacemaker. You have do do something senseless like ark welding to ask for real trouble. Just relax be sensible and enjoy your pacemaker.

You know you're wired when...

You have a little piece of high-tech in your chest.
