I recently had a Watchman device installed in my heart. I use a CPAP machine, and I also recently switched over to a Phillips full-face mask with a magnetic closure. When it arrived, it had a notification that it should not be used if you have a pacemaker, stent, metal implant, etc. I contacted Phillips to ask if their mask was contraindicated for use with the Watchman. The answer was that they didn't know. I have emailed my doctor but haven't heard back. Has anyone had experience with the Watchman and magnetic closures on their CPAP?
I have a watchman and a pacemaker as well, I also use the dreamwear full face by phillips, I took my mask to the cardiologist and asked him directly. he approved the use of that mask for me. hope this helps.
