Interference of neodymium magnets with cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators: An in vitro study

Abstract
Permanent magnets may interfere with the function of cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). Neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets have become widely available in recent years and are incorporated in various articles of
