[Proposal for magnetic/electromagnetic fields protection norms on national level].

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: The modern life is not possible without application of magnetic/electromagnetic fields, which can be both helpful and harmful for human body. INFLUENCE OF MAGNETIC/ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS ON BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS: The non-ionizing radiation, especially magnetic/electromagnetic fields of all frequencies (0-300 GHz), can have many harmful effects on the human health that is confirmed by numerous epidemiological studies, studies with volunteers, animal studies, and in vitro studies. Proposal for magnetic/electromagnetic fields protection norms on national level based on the WHO Program for Environment, International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)], and WHO International EMF Project. CONCLUSION: Protection from harmful effects of the magnetic/electromagnetic fields is still a great problem in many countries of modern society--huge costs, impaired quality of life, and more important, damage to the human health. Numerous data and publications of harmful effects of the magnetic/electromagnetic fields represents one's country basic necessary documentation for making decisions and law documents for protection norms on national level concerning the health maintenance according to the ICNIRP normatives.

Main findings

The article discusses potential harmful health effects of non-ionizing magnetic/electromagnetic fields across 0–300 GHz and proposes national-level protection norms based on WHO and ICNIRP frameworks (including the WHO International EMF Project).

Outcomes measured

• Human health effects (general)
• Policy/protection norms for magnetic/electromagnetic fields

Limitations

• No specific study design, methods, or original data are described in the abstract.
• No specific exposure sources, metrics, or quantified risk estimates are provided.
• Outcomes and health endpoints are discussed generally without specifying particular diseases or measures.
