Hi , a heart stent is not going to set off a metal detector. However, Whether you’re running a quick errand or going on vacation, it’s important to carry your Stent Implant Card with you at all times. If you receive dental or medical care or report to an emergency room, show your Stent Implant Card. I hope this will help you.
Unlikely. Mainly, pacemakers or defibrillator or larger metal joint parts.
No. There is no ferrous material in cardiac stents.
