• Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the 
user that is not necessary for device function; and
•  Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible 
information on possible effects of wireless phone use on human health.
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...

210Safety
These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were 
developed with the advice of the FDA and 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-calle\
d 
“cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to the telepho\
ne 
wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power...

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 peopl\
e 
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. Epidemiologic\
al 
studies can provide data...

contracts with independent investigators. The initial research will incl\
ude 
both laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA 
will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the\
 
context of the latest research developments around the world.
7.  How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless phone?
All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal 
Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines...

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 th\
e 
whole body or a small part of the body. It’s measured in watts/kg (or 
milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determine whether a 
wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.

recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists 
that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Th\
eir 
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 (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with som\

electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped...

incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail 
answer it for you.

your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other 
serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local
