Do wireless phones pose a health hazard? Theavailablescientificevidencedoes notshowthatanyhealthproblems areassociatedwithusingwireless phones.Thereisnoproof,however,that wirelessphonesareabsolutelysafe. WirelessphonesemitlowlevelsofRadio Frequency(RF)energyinthemicrowave rangewhilebeingused.Theyalsoemit verylowlevelsofRFwheninstandby mode.WhereashighlevelsofRFcan producehealtheffects(byheatingtissue), exposuretolowlevelRFthatdoesnot produceheatingeffectscausesnoknown adversehealtheffects.Manystudiesof lowlevelRFexposureshavenotfound anybiologicaleffects.Somestudieshave suggestedthatsomebiologicaleffects 172 Safety mayoccur,butsuchfindingshavenot beenconfirmedbyadditionalresearch.In somecases,otherresearchershavehad difficultyinreproducingthosestudies,or indeterminingthereasonsforinconsistent results. 2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones? Underthelaw,theFDAdoesnot reviewthesafetyofradiation-emitting consumerproductssuchaswireless phonesbeforetheycanbesold,as itdoeswithnewdrugsormedical devices.However,theagencyhas authoritytotakeactionifwireless phonesareshowntoemitRadio Frequency(RF)energyatalevelthat ishazardoustotheuser.Insuch acase,theFDAcouldrequirethe manufacturersofwirelessphonesto notifyusersofthehealthhazardandto repair,replace,orrecallthephonesso thatthehazardnolongerexists. Althoughtheexistingscientificdata doesnotjustifyFDAregulatoryactions, Safety 173 theFDAhasurgedthewirelessphone industrytotakeanumberofsteps, includingthefollowing: informationonpossibleeffectsof wirelessphoneuseonhumanhealth. TheFDAbelongstoaninteragency •Supportneededresearchintopossible workinggroupofthefederalagencies thathaveresponsibilityfordifferent biologicaleffectsofRFofthetype aspectsofRFsafetytoensure emittedbywirelessphones; coordinatedeffortsatthefederallevel. •Designwirelessphonesinawaythat Thefollowingagenciesbelongtothis minimizesanyRFexposuretothe workinggroup: userthatisnotnecessaryfordevice •NationalInstituteforOccupational function;and SafetyandHealth •Cooperateinprovidingusersof wirelessphoneswiththebestpossible •EnvironmentalProtectionAgency 174 Safety •OccupationalSafetyandHealth Administration •NationalTelecommunicationsand InformationAdministration TheNationalInstitutesofHealth participatesinsomeinteragency workinggroupactivities,aswell. TheFDAsharesregulatory responsibilitiesforwirelessphones withtheFederalCommunications Commission(FCC).Allphonesthatare soldintheUnitedStatesmustcomply withFCCsafetyguidelinesthatlimitRF exposure.TheFCCreliesontheFDA andotherhealthagenciesforsafety questionsaboutwirelessphones. TheFCCalsoregulatesthebase stationsthatthewirelessphone networksrelyupon.Whilethesebase stationsoperateathigherpowerthando thewirelessphonesthemselves,theRF exposuresthatpeoplegetfromthese basestationsaretypicallythousands oftimeslowerthanthosetheycanget fromwirelessphones.Basestations Safety 175 arethusnotthesubjectofthesafety questionsdiscussedinthisdocument. 3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update? Theterm“wirelessphone”refers heretohandheldwirelessphones withbuilt-inantennas,oftencalled “cell”,“mobile”,or“PCS”phones. Thesetypesofwirelessphonescan exposetheusertomeasurableRadio Frequency(RF)energybecauseofthe shortdistancebetweenthephoneand theuser’shead. TheseRFexposuresarelimitedbyFCC safetyguidelinesthatweredeveloped withtheadviceoftheFDAandother federalhealthandsafetyagencies. Whenthephoneislocatedatgreater distancesfromtheuser,theexposure toRFisdrasticallylowerbecause aperson’sRFexposuredecreases rapidlywithincreasingdistancefrom thesource.Theso-called“cordless phones,”whichhaveabaseunit connectedtothetelephonewiringin 176 Safety ahouse,typicallyoperateatfarlower powerlevels,andthusproduceRF exposuresfarbelowtheFCCsafety limits. 4. What are the results of the research done already? Theresearchdonethusfarhas producedconflictingresults,andmany studieshavesufferedfromflaws intheirresearchmethods.Animal experimentsinvestigatingtheeffectsof RadioFrequency(RF)energyexposures characteristicofwirelessphoneshave yieldedconflictingresultsthatoften cannotberepeatedinotherlaboratories. Afewanimalstudies,however,have suggestedthatlowlevelsofRFcould acceleratethedevelopmentofcancer inlaboratoryanimals.However,many ofthestudiesthatshowedincreased tumordevelopmentusedanimalsthat hadbeengeneticallyengineeredor treatedwithcancer-causingchemicals soastobepre-disposedtodevelop cancerintheabsenceofRFexposure. Safety 177 Otherstudiesexposedtheanimals toRFforupto22hoursperday. Theseconditionsarenotsimilartothe conditionsunderwhichpeopleuse wirelessphones,sowedonotknow withcertaintywhattheresultsof suchstudiesmeanforhumanhealth. Threelargeepidemiologystudieshave beenpublishedsinceDecember2000. Betweenthem,thestudiesinvestigated anypossibleassociationbetweenthe useofwirelessphonesandprimary braincancer,glioma,meningioma, oracousticneuroma,tumorsofthe brainorsalivarygland,leukemia,or othercancers.Noneofthestudies demonstratedtheexistenceofany harmfulhealtheffectsfromwireless phoneRFexposures.However,noneof thestudiescananswerquestionsabout long-termexposures,sincetheaverage periodofphoneuseinthesestudies wasaroundthreeyears. 5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health 178 Safety risk? Acombinationoflaboratorystudies andepidemiologicalstudiesofpeople actuallyusingwirelessphoneswould providesomeofthedatathatare needed.Lifetimeanimalexposure studiescouldbecompletedinafew years.However,verylargenumbersof animalswouldbeneededtoprovide reliableproofofacancerpromoting effect,ifoneexists.Epidemiological studiescanprovidedatathatisdirectly applicabletohumanpopulations,but tenormoreyearsfollow-upmaybe neededtoprovideanswersaboutsome healtheffects,suchascancer.Thisis becausetheintervalbetweenthetime ofexposuretoacancer-causingagent andthetimetumorsdevelop-ifthey do-maybemany,manyyears.The interpretationofepidemiologicalstudies ishamperedbydifficultiesinmeasuring actualRFexposureduringday-to-day useofwirelessphones.Manyfactors affectthismeasurement,suchasthe angleatwhichthephoneisheld,or Safety 179 whichmodelofphoneisused. 6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF? TheFDAisworkingwiththeU.S. NationalToxicologyProgramandwith groupsofinvestigatorsaroundthe worldtoensurethathighpriorityanimal studiesareconductedtoaddress importantquestionsabouttheeffects ofexposuretoRadioFrequency(RF) energy. TheFDAhasbeenaleadingparticipant intheWorldHealthOrganization InternationalElectroMagneticFields (EMF)Projectsinceitsinceptionin 1996.Aninfluentialresultofthis workhasbeenthedevelopmentofa detailedagendaofresearchneedsthat hasdriventheestablishmentofnew researchprogramsaroundtheworld. Theprojecthasalsohelpeddevelopa seriesofpublicinformationdocuments onEMFissues. TheFDAandtheCellular 180 Safety Telecommunications&Internet Association(CTIA)haveaformal CooperativeResearchAnd DevelopmentAgreement(CRADA) todoresearchonwirelessphone safety.TheFDAprovidesthescientific oversight,obtaininginputfromexperts ingovernment,industry,andacademic organizations.CTIA-fundedresearch isconductedthroughcontractswith independentinvestigators.Theinitial researchwillincludebothlaboratory studiesandstudiesofwirelessphone users.TheCRADAwillalsoincludea broadassessmentofadditionalresearch needsinthecontextofthelatest researchdevelopmentsaroundthe world. 7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless phone? AllphonessoldintheUnited StatesmustcomplywithFederal CommunicationsCommission(FCC) Safety 181 guidelinesthatlimitRadioFrequency (RF)energyexposures.TheFCC establishedtheseguidelinesin consultationwiththeFDAandtheother federalhealthandsafetyagencies.The FCClimitforRFexposurefromwireless phonesissetataSpecificAbsorption Rate(SAR)of1.6wattsperkilogram (1.6W/kg).TheFCClimitisconsistent withthesafetystandardsdevelopedby theInstituteofElectricalandElectronic Engineering(IEEE)andtheNational CouncilonRadiationProtectionand Measurement.Theexposurelimittakes intoconsiderationthebody’sability toremoveheatfromthetissuesthat absorbenergyfromthewirelessphone andissetwellbelowlevelsknownto haveeffects.Manufacturersofwireless phonesmustreporttheRFexposure levelforeachmodelofphonetothe FCC.TheFCCwebsite(http://www.fcc. gov/cgb/cellular.html)givesdirections forlocatingtheFCCidentification numberonyourphonesoyoucanfind yourphone’sRFexposurelevelinthe 182 Safety onlinelisting. 8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming from wireless phones? TheInstituteofElectricalandElectronic Engineers(IEEE)isdevelopinga technicalstandardformeasuring theRadioFrequency(RF)energy exposurefromwirelessphones andotherwirelesshandsetswith theparticipationandleadershipof FDAscientistsandengineers.The standard,“RecommendedPracticefor DeterminingtheSpatial-PeakSpecific AbsorptionRate(SAR)intheHuman BodyDuetoWirelessCommunications Devices:ExperimentalTechniques”, setsforththefirstconsistenttest methodologyformeasuringtherate atwhichRFisdepositedintheheads ofwirelessphoneusers.Thetest methodusesatissue-simulatingmodel ofthehumanhead.Standardized SARtestmethodologyisexpected Safety 183 togreatlyimprovetheconsistency ofmeasurementsmadeatdifferent laboratoriesonthesamephone.SAR isthemeasurementoftheamountof energyabsorbedintissue,eitherbythe wholebodyorasmallpartofthebody. Itismeasuredinwatts/kg(ormilliwatts/ g)ofmatter.Thismeasurementisused todeterminewhetherawirelessphone complieswithsafetyguidelines. 9.

What about children using wireless phones? Thescientificevidencedoesnotshow adangertousersofwirelessphones, includingchildrenandteenagers.Ifyou wanttotakestepstolowerexposure toRadioFrequency(RF)energy,the measuresdescribedabovewouldapply tochildrenandteenagersusingwireless phones.Reducingthetimeofwireless phoneuseandincreasingthedistance betweentheuserandtheRFsource willreduceRFexposure.

Theynotedthatnoevidenceexists thatusingawirelessphonecauses braintumorsorotherilleffects.Their recommendationtolimitwireless phoneusebychildrenwasstrictly precautionary;itwasnotbasedon scientificevidencethatanyhealth hazardexists. 11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment? RadioFrequency(RF)energyfrom wirelessphonescaninteractwithsome electronicdevices.Forthisreason,the FDAhelpeddevelopadetailedtest methodtomeasureElectroMagnetic Interference(EMI)ofimplantedcardiac pacemakersanddefibrillatorsfrom 186 Safety wirelesstelephones.Thistestmethod isnowpartofastandardsponsoredby theAssociationfortheAdvancement ofMedicalInstrumentation(AAMI).
