Antonio: I would say many incubators were manufactured when there were no concerns and the susceptibility was a function of the design and very variable. I have heard they vary from 0.1V/m to 10V/m but don't think there is any set standard. The medical gurus prefer to isolate their equipment by physical barriers and hope that something will not affect them
In Canada Health Canada could answer thequestion . In the U.S. I believe its the Food and Drug Administration.
