We aimed to test the occurrence of EMI in a setting where this risk was experimentally maximized. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Outpatients scheduled for routine ICD controls simultaneously underwent a BIA measurement using an electrical current of 0.8 mAmp at frequencies from 5-100 kHz. ICD sensitivity levels were set to maximum levels while therapies were temporarily inactivated. The device electrograms were monitored in real time to detect sensed and/or visible EMI during BIA measurement. RESULTS: A total of 63 patients equipped with single-chamber (n = 13), dual-chamber (n = 18), or biventricular (n = 32) ICDs from 5 major manufacturers were included. No EMI were detected by the ICDs in these patients, nor were any artifacts visualized during real-time electrogram recordings. CONCLUSION: BIA can be safely performed in patients equipped with ICDs without cardiac monitoring. Current guidelines should be updated accordingly %G English %2 https://univ-rennes.hal.science/hal-01282334/document %2 https://univ-rennes.hal.science/hal-01282334/file/Safety%20of%20bioelectrical%20impedance%20analysis%20R2_BIA_ICD_MS_JPEN_0110116.pdf %L hal-01282334 %U https://univ-rennes.hal.science/hal-01282334 %~ INSERM %~ UNIV-RENNES1 %~ CARDIO %~ IFR140 %~ HL %~ U991 %~ STATS-UR1 %~ NUMECAN %~ NUMECAN-ALICE %~ UR1-UFR-SVE %~ UR1-HAL %~ UR1-SDV %~ TEST-UNIV-RENNES %~ TEST-UR-CSS %~ UNIV-RENNES %~ NUMECAN-EAT %~ UR1-BIO-SA
