The introduction of wireless communication to clinical settings is rapidly progressing. The use of wireless communication technology has enabled the hospital staff to gather and transmit information and increase efficiency by connecting to high tech medical devices, e.g. communicating with implanted medical devices. The use of medical devices outside hospitals has increased: Not only implanted devices like cardiac pacemakers but home use machines such as respirators are increasing. In such an environment, it is imperative to prevent electromagnetic interference with medical devices and to ensure the compatibility of wireless communications. Furthermore, taking measures to protect against the electromagnetic noise the various devices used in a hospital emit is important. In this paper, we show the current status of the above issues and how to manage them.
