Lawson,
Long time since I talked to you!
The medical field is very sensitive to interference and
problems caused by electrical noise (or lawyer noise!).
If you look at the first few pages of any semiconductor
databook you will see the disclaimer about using their
products in life support systems.  I would think that
the designers of these products are under intense
design constraints.  Unfortunately if there was a problem
that could not be easily explained they would probably go
after the company with the least amount of design experts (that
is the company without the resources to pay for high dollar attorneys!).
A real world and technical answer would be no, I don't think there is
any chance of a problem.  How many plant engineers come in close
contact with several hundred horsepower SCR soft start drives?
If you're going to have a problem, it would definately occur
there.  If you have a concerned customer, I would refer them
to many references to other electronics that are much more
likely to cause a problem than an EV.
