Background: It is routinely recommended that patients with pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD), and cardiac resynchronization therapy‐defibrillators (CRT‐D) avoid bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)—a commonly used method to estimate body composition—because of the concern for the potential for BIA interference with pacemaker or ICD function. However, the prevalence of such interference is not known. Objective: Assess for incidence of interference between BIA and ICD or CRT‐D devices …
