How does it affect a Pacemaker??

I am not sure but someone I know that wears an EFX bracelet said it was designed for pacemaker wearers. You can do more research on that on-line. But, that is what I was told.

Yes it does. Thats exactly what it was designed for. I recommend you go to your doctor and get a reading from his/her device, that way you'd be able to get an accurate reading from this machine.Strange enough that I also do have an irregular heartbeat many many years now (1997 or so) and the doctor ran some testing for over a 2 weeks period to see what was wrong. Finally he told me thats the way my heart beats. To this day I don't ever worry about it and it does not worry me, and I'm 55 yrs young and going strong ☺ ☻ ☼

I bought this for my Grandson- my daughter is thrilled with it- so I would say no- it doesn't affect the sensitivity.

Specifically, I see no feasible way that it could interact with a pacemaker's function. In general, it is highly unlikely that colloidal silver will interact with any device or medication inside your body. It could interact if a medication is actually mixed together with the colloidal silver prior to, or at the time of, administration. Colloidal Silver is a nutritional supplement [albeit an excellent one] and should be treated as such -- always consult your doctor before use if you are under medical care or taking any sort of prescription medication. It is a good idea also to check with your pharmacist about possible interactions with prescription as well as over the counter products. Colloidal silver is a very safe product and will almost certainly NOT interfere with anything other than the metabolism of microbial life forms, but checking with professionals is the best bet...always!

I don't know but you could ask Tanita customer service. I know that you can stand on the scale and just get a weight butI can not tell you if that means the bioimpedence component of the unit would NOT affect the pace maker. I don't know if it isactivated all the time or if setting it up to read the percent water and percent fat activates it. Good luck.

What I've experienced with my watch is it is much better responding accurately when you are running more of a constant pace, current pace, but if you start sprinting it takes a bit to catch up. I hope this helps.

I haven't noticed any other effects. I think there is a loss to a couple of chimes, but its been so long that I'm not even sure. the product does what it says and goes in pretty easily.

I doubt it - it has not affected my 2012 Toyota's electronics. My understanding is that it senses disturbances in the magnetic field caused by the passage of large metal objects (vehicles). Its radio signal to the receiver should be nothing worse than any radio signals from things like walkie talkies and cell phones already in the environment.

Not sure, it just doesn't seem to sense the pulse at times. Try putting it on your thumbnail

No, It doesn't. What It gives is heart beats per minute, very important to avoid a heart attack. Good luck!

A heart stent is fine. The reason why a scale that analyses body composition should not be used for someone with a pacemaker is due to the electrical charge required for analysis. Apparently, it can cause interference with the pacemaker/internal defibrillator (https://withings.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201489327-Should-I-use-the-Wi-Fi-Body-Scale-if-I-use-a-pacemaker-). If you have a heart stent, that shouldn't be a problem, but you should definitely direct any questions about it to your cardiologist to be sure.

It will take your pulse whenever you want it to. When wearing the watch, just press the pulse button, wait 2 or 3 seconds and it will give your pulse. Sitting, standing, working out, walking, resting, doesn't matter. I take my pulse when I put it on, during to get my pulse rate to target rate and then again after cool down to see if it gets back to normal.

No. This product cannot mess with a pacemaker. It is a metal, but is not considered a heavy metal due to the small particle size (2 Nanometers). On average, NPSW's colloidal silver will be excreted from the body within 6-8 hours. There are no adverse side effects with taking NPSW's colloidal silver, while having a pacemaker in your body.

I have found it very accurate when compared against other devices like treadmill sensors which you hold on to and even when I compare to a blood pressure monitor.There is a little heart which flashes on the top right so if you hold your other hand to the pulse at your neck you can get confirmation that the heartbeat measured on the watch coincides with the actual heartbeat you are experiencing.

It does get increase your heart rate slightly but I didn't find it to be significant. I wore my heart rate monitor during one 10" session and only noticed a small increase, not enough to get me in the targeted zone suggested for my age.

It is a TENS unit and like most it sends an electrical current between the two pads or leads. There are a few settings that vary the duration and frequency of the pulse. If you want to know the "science" behind it, just search about TENS units, they all use the same principal just different designs.

As far as I remember it does effect the tone itself. I usually don't mess with the tone knob. I set at mid-point and leave it alone.
