wireless phones with the best possible

information on possible effects of

wireless phone use on human health.

Under the law, the FDA does not review

the safety of radiation-emitting consumer

products such as wireless phones before

they can be sold, as it does with new drugs

or medical devices. However, the agency

has authority to take action if wireless

phones are shown to emit radiofrequency

energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to

the user. In such a case, the FDA could

require the manufacturers of wireless

phones to notify users of the health hazard

and to repair, replace, or recall the phones

so that the hazard no longer exists.

The FDA belongs to an interagency working

group of the federal agencies that have

responsibility for different aspects of RF

safety to ensure coordinated efforts at

the federal level. The following agencies

belong to this working group:

Safety Guidelines

The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities

for wireless phones with the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC). All

phones that are sold in the United States

must comply with FCC safety guidelines

that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on

the FDA and other health agencies for

safety questions about wireless phones.

other federal health and safety agencies.

When the phone is located at greater

distances from the user, the exposure to RF

is drastically lower because a person’s RF

exposure decreases rapidly with increasing

distance from the source. The so-called

‘cordless phones,’ which have a base unit

connected to the telephone wiring in a

house, typically operate at far lower power

levels, and thus produce RF exposures far

below the FCC safety limits.

The FCC also regulates the base stations

that the wireless phone networks rely

upon. While these base stations operate

at higher power than do the wireless

phones themselves, the RF exposures that

people get from these base stations are

typically thousands of times lower than

those they can get from wireless phones.

Base stations are thus not the subject

of the safety questions discussed in this

document.

4. What are the results of the research

done already?

The research done thus far has produced

conflicting results, and many studies have

suffered from flaws in their research

methods. Animal experiments investigating

the effects of radiofrequency energy (RF)

exposures characteristic of wireless phones

have yielded conflicting results that often

cannot be repeated in other laboratories.

A few animal studies, however, have

suggested that low levels of RF could

accelerate the development of cancer in

laboratory animals. However, many of

the studies that showed increased tumor

development used animals that had been

genetically engineered or treated with

cancer causing chemicals so as to be pre-

disposed to develop cancer in the absence

of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the

3. What kinds of phones are the subject

of this update?

The term ‘wireless phone’ refers here to

handheld wireless phones with built-in

antennas, often called ‘cell’, ‘mobile’, or

‘PCS’ phones. These types of wireless

phones can expose the user to measurable

radiofrequency energy (RF) because of the

short distance between the phone and

the user’s head. These RF exposures are

limited by FCC safety guidelines that were

developed with the advice of the FDA and

105

Safety Guidelines

animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day.

These conditions are not similar to the

conditions under which people use wireless

phones, so we don’t know with certainty

what the results of such studies mean for

human health. Three large epidemiology

studies have been published since

December 2000. Between them, the studies

investigated any possible association

between the use of wireless phones and

primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma,

or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or

salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers.

None of the studies demonstrated the

existence of any harmful health effects

from wireless phone RF exposures.

5. What research is needed to decide

whether RF exposure from wireless

phones poses a health risk?

A combination of laboratory studies and

epidemiological studies of people actually

using wireless phones would provide some

of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal

exposure studies could be completed in a

few years. However, very large numbers

of animals would be needed to provide

reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect

if one exists. Epidemiological studies can

provide data that is directly applicable

to human populations, but 10 or more

years follow-up may be needed to provide

answers about some health effects, such

as cancer. This is because the interval

between the time of exposure to a cancer-

causing agent and the time tumors develop

- if they do- may be many, many years. The

interpretation of epidemiological studies

is hampered by difficulties in measuring

actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of

wireless phones. Many factors affect this

measurement, such as the angle at which

the phone is held, or which model of phone

is used.

However, none of the studies can answer

questions about long-term exposures, since

the average period of phone use in these

studies was around three years.

the scientific oversight, obtaining input

from experts in government, industry,

and academic organizations. CTIA-funded

research is conducted through contracts

with independent investigators. The initial

All phones sold in the United States must

comply with Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit radio

frequency energy (RF) exposures. The FCC

established these guidelines in consultation

with the FDA and the other federal health

and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF

exposure from wireless telephones is set

at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6

watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC

limit is consistent with the safety standards

developed by the Institute of Electrical

and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the

National Council on Radiation Protection

and Measurement. The exposure limit takes

into consideration the body’s ability to

remove heat from the tissues that absorb

energy from the wireless phone and is set

well below levels known to have effects.

Manufacturers of wireless phones must

report the RF exposure level for each model

of phone to the FCC. The FCC website

determine whether a wireless phone

complies with safety guidelines.

9. What steps can I take to reduce my

exposure to radiofrequency energy

from my wireless phone?

8. What has the FDA done to measure the

radio frequency energy coming from

wireless phones?

If there is a risk from these products - and

at this point we do not know that there

is - it is probably very small. But if you are

concerned about avoiding even potential

risks, you can take a few simple steps to

minimize your exposure to radiofrequency

energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in

how much exposure a person receives,

reducing the amount of time spent using a

wireless phone will reduce RF exposure. If

you must conduct extended conversations

by wireless phone every day, you could

place more distance between your body

and the source of the RF, since the exposure

level drops off dramatically with distance.

For example, you could use a headset and

carry the wireless phone away from your

body or use a wireless phone connected to

a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data

do not demonstrate that wireless phones

are harmful. But if you are concerned about

the RF exposure from these products, you

can use measures like those described

above to reduce your RF exposure from

wireless phone use.

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic

Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical

standard for measuring the radio frequency

energy (RF) exposure from wireless

phones and other wireless handsets with

the participation and leadership of FDA

scientists and engineers. The standard,

‘Recommended Practice for Determining

the Spatial- Peak Specific Absorption Rate

(SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless

Communications Devices: Experimental

Techniques,’ sets forth the first consistent

test methodology for measuring the rate

at which RF is deposited in the heads of

wireless phone users. The test method

uses a tissuesimulating model of the

human head. Standardized SAR test

methodology is expected to greatly improve

the consistency of measurements made at

different laboratories on the same phone.

SAR is the measurement of the amount of

energy absorbed in tissue, either by the

whole body or a small part of the body. It

is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g)

Safety Guidelines

10. What about children using wireless

phones?

11. What about wireless phone

interference with medical equipment?

The scientific evidence does not show

a danger to users of wireless phones,

including children and teenagers. If you

want to take steps to lower exposure to

radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures

described above would apply to children

and teenagers using wireless phones.

Reducing the time of wireless phone use

and increasing the distance between

the user and the RF source will reduce

RF exposure. Some groups sponsored by

other national governments have advised

that children be discouraged from using

wireless phones at all. For example,

the government in the United Kingdom

distributed leaflets containing such a

recommendation in December 2000. They

noted that no evidence exists that using

a wireless phone causes brain tumors or

other ill effects. Their recommendation to

limit wireless phone use by children was

strictly precautionary; it was not based on

scientific evidence that any health hazard

exists.

Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless

phones can interact with some electronic

devices. For this reason, the FDA helped

develop a detailed test method to measure

electromagnetic interference (EMI) of

implanted cardiac pacemakers and

defibrillators from wireless telephones.

This test method is now part of a standard
