34. ucts you can use measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use 10 What about children using wireless phones 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 radio frequency 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 11 What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment 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 tele phones This test method is now part of a standard sponsore
35. 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 http www fcc gov oet rfsafety gives directions for locating the FCC identification number on your phone so you can find your phone s RF exposure level in the online listing oo What has the FDA done to measure the radio frequency energy coming from wireless phones The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers IEEE is develop ing 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 tissue simulating 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 of matter This measurement is used to determine whether a wirele
