Depends on the age of the equipment, people in hospital would be surprised how old a lot of the equipment can be - some of it can be more than 15 years old; this type of equipment is more liable to interference as it wasn't a major concern when it was originally manufactured, newer more modern equipment won't be as susceptible as manufacturers are all too aware of the consequences.
There are many other factors some of which are:
* The power output of the transmitting device * How close the device is to the equipment * What the purpose of the equipment is (eg, an ecg machine deals with very low level signals and therefore would definitely be more susceptible than say a non-invasive blood pressure machine)

What is the advantages and disadvantages of twisted pair copper?
Shielded twisted pair wires are less susceptible to electrical interference caused by nearby equipment or wires and, in turn, are less likely to cause interference themselves. Because it is electrically "cleaner," shielded twisted pair wire can carry data at a faster speed. The disadvantage of shielded twisted pair wire is that it is physically larger and more expensive than twisted pair wire, and it is more difficult to connect to a terminating block.
What is an Antenna FM Trap?
The FM Trap is used to reduce offending FM signals that can cause audio and video interference. Designed to attenuate the entire FM band and Average -26dB. It's a piece of hardware between the antenna and the preamplifier.
Can a shortwave diathermy machine cause interference with wireless computer systems?
It could. one should bear in mind that SW Diathermy was developed in the twenties and thirties, has some ( largely corrected or adjusted) hazards, and this was before the advent of electronic computers. So there may be discovered hazards.
Why is it necessary to service IT equipment?
As with any physical device, you need to service it to keep it from deteriorating. Most of the time a blast of compressed air or a good vacuuming will remove build-up dust that may cause the equipment to overheat and burn out. Other times, parts of a system may by physically worn out or outdated and need replacing by new components.
What is the most likely cause of interference on an 802.11g network?
Cordless phones
Why must cells phones be turned off in a medical office?
So that it doesn't disturb anyone, it is unlikely that it will cause any damage to any electrical and medical equipment.
What effects can solar flares have on Earth directly?
Solar flares can cause interference with electronic equipment (like cell phones) and because we have magnetic poles, the radiative particles that do make it to the atmoshpere become the northern lights.
Why must cell phones be turned off when you are in a radiation unit?
According to this scientific paper: http://bjr.birjournals.org/cgi/reprint/73/873/994.pdf, cell phones can interfere with the devices that monitor the doses of radiation patients receive. There is a small possibility that the cell phone could cause some sort of interference with the equipment. This is similar to the requirement for airline travel.

Do handheld games like the Nintendo DSI cause brain cancer?
It seems that there is no medical evidence that handheld games cause cancer. It would be safe to assume that they do not, since there is not conclusive evidence that cellular phones cause cancer either.
