    GETTING STARTED Based on current research, cellular devices do not pose a significant health problem for most pacemaker wearers. However, people with pacemakers may want to take simple precautions to be sure that their device doesn't cause a problem. Keep the device on the opposite side of the body from the pacemaker to add extra distance between the pacemaker and the device.
