Hernia mesh

Gallbladder clips

Any orthopedic hardware (knee/hip replacements, screws in feet/shoulder, etc.)

Dental Implants (unless magnetic)

Insulin pumps (they just need to remove it)

Ports/Picc lines

Cataracts

Bladder slings

IUD's

Always Check for these devices:

Implants we absolutely need make/model, surgical notes, implant card, etc.

Pacemaker
Aneurysm clips

Stents other than cardiac

Heart valve replacements

Shunts

Any electronic stimulator

Penile implants

Cochlear or other ear implants
