Using mobile phones near hospital beds or important equipment is dangerous and could switch off ventilators or disrupt pacemakers, Dutch researchers said on Thursday.
 
    荷蘭研究者上周四稱(chēng)，在 醫(yī)院病床或重要設(shè)備附近使用手機(jī)是危險(xiǎn)的，可能會(huì)讓呼吸器驟�；蛐呐K起搏器功能紊亂。

    The University of Amsterdam researchers recorded nearly 50 incidents of electromagnetic interference from cell phone use in hospitals and classified 75 percent of them as significant or hazardous.Because of this mobile phones should come no closer than one meter to hospital beds and equipment, said the researchers."Critical care equipment is vulnerable to electromagnetic interference by new-generation wireless telecommunication technologies," they wrote.

    研究人員記錄了近50例在醫(yī)院里的手機(jī)電磁干擾事件，發(fā)現(xiàn)在醫(yī)院打手機(jī)有75%的機(jī)率造成顯著的或危險(xiǎn)的影響。新一代無(wú)線通信技術(shù)電磁信號(hào)很容易就能影響到重癥監(jiān)護(hù)設(shè)備。

    The study contradicts a study earlier this year from researchers at the Mayo Clinic who found that 300 tests over a five-month period turned up no noticeable interference with important hospital equipment due to regular mobile phone use.

    該項(xiàng)研究與美國(guó)梅約醫(yī)學(xué)中心今年年初推出的另一項(xiàng)研究剛好相反，梅約的研究人員歷時(shí)五個(gè)月進(jìn)行了300次試驗(yàn)，結(jié)論是使用手機(jī)不會(huì)對(duì)醫(yī)院的重要設(shè)備造成明顯干擾。

    The Dutch team——which tested 61 different medical devices—— found that most of the incidents stemmed from the latest General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) signal, a new-generation technology that allows things such as wireless Internet access.

    荷蘭研究人員測(cè)試了61種不同的醫(yī)療設(shè)備，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)大部分干擾都來(lái)自最新的通用分組無(wú)線業(yè)務(wù)(GPRS)信號(hào)，使用這種技術(shù)可以無(wú)線上網(wǎng)。
