FDA Consumer Update
TheU.S.FoodandDrugAdministration’sCenterforDevicesand
RadiologicalHealthConsumerUpdateonMobileTablets:
1. Do tablets pose a health hazard?
Theavailablescientificevidencedoesnotshowthatanyhealthproblemsare
associatedwithusingtablets.
Thereisnoproof,however,thattabletsareabsolutelysafe.Tabletsemitlow
levelsofRadioFrequency(RF)energyinthemicrowaverangewhilebeing
used.TheyalsoemitverylowlevelsofRFwheninidlemode.Whereashigh
levelsofRFcanproducehealtheffects(byheatingtissue),exposuretolow
levelRFthatdoesnotproduceheatingeffectscausesnoknownadverse
healtheffects.ManystudiesoflowlevelRFexposureshavenotfound
anybiologicaleffects.Somestudieshavesuggestedthatsomebiological
effectsmayoccur,butsuchfindingshavenotbeenconfirmedbyadditional
research.Insomecases,otherresearchershavehaddifficultyinreproducing
thosestudies,orindeterminingthereasonsforinconsistentresults.
2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of tablets?
Underthelaw,theFDAdoesnotreviewthesafetyofradiation-emitting
consumerproductssuchastabletsbeforetheycanbesold,asitdoeswith
newdrugsormedicaldevices.However,theagencyhasauthoritytotake
actioniftabletsareshowntoemitRadioFrequency(RF)energyatalevel
125
thatishazardoustotheuser.Insuchacase,theFDAcouldrequirethe
manufacturersoftabletstonotifyusersofthehealthhazardandtorepair,
replace,orrecallthetabletssothatthehazardnolongerexists.
AlthoughtheexistingscientificdatadoesnotjustifyFDAregulatoryactions,
theFDAhasurgedthetabletindustrytotakeanumberofsteps,including
thefollowing:
•SupportneededresearchintopossiblebiologicaleffectsofRFofthetype
emittedbytablets;
•DesigntabletsinawaythatminimizesanyRFexposuretotheuserthatis
notnecessaryfordevicefunction;and
•Cooperateinprovidingusersoftabletswiththebestpossibleinformation
onpossibleeffectsoftablet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
workinggroup:
•NationalInstituteforOccupationalSafetyandHealth
•EnvironmentalProtectionAgency
•OccupationalSafetyandHealthAdministration
•NationalTelecommunicationsandInformationAdministration
TheNationalInstitutesofHealthparticipatesinsomeinteragencyworking
groupactivities,aswell.
TheFDAsharesregulatoryresponsibilitiesfortabletswiththeFederal
CommunicationsCommission(FCC).Alltablets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
tablets.
126
TheFCCalsoregulatesthebasestationsthatthetabletnetworksrelyupon.
Whilethesebasestationsoperateathigherpowerthandothetablets
themselves,theRFexposuresthatpeoplegetfromthesebasestationsare
typicallythousandsoftimeslowerthanthosetheycangetfromtablets.Base
stationsarethusnotthesubjectofthesafetyquestionsdiscussedinthis
document.
3. What kinds of devices are the subject of this update?
Theterm“wirelessdevice”refersheretohandheldwirelessdeviceswith
built-inantennas,oftencalled“cell”,“mobile”,or“PCS”devices.Thesetypes
ofwirelessdevicescanexposetheusertomeasurableRadioFrequency(RF)
energybecauseoftheshortdistancebetweenthedeviceandtheuser’s
head.
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device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.
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RadioFrequency(RF)energy
exposurescharacteristicofwirelessdevices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.
127
OtherstudiesexposedtheanimalstoRFforupto22hoursperday.These
conditionsarenotsimilartotheconditionsunderwhichpeopleusewireless
devices,sowedonot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devicesandprimary
braincancer,glioma,meningioma,oracousticneuroma,tumorsofthe

demonstratedtheexistenceofanyharmfulhealtheffectsfromwireless
deviceRFexposures.However,noneofthestudiescananswerquestions
aboutlong-termexposures,sincetheaverageperiodofdeviceuseinthese
studieswasaroundthreeyears.
5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from
tablets poses a health risk?
Acombinationoflaboratorystudiesandepidemiologicalstudiesofpeople
actuallyusingtablets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ten
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tablets.Manyfactorsaffectthismeasurement,suchasthe
angleatwhichthetabletisheld,orwhichmodeloftabletisused.

6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible
health effects of tablet RF?
TheFDAisworkingwiththeU.S.NationalToxicologyProgramandwith

AlltabletssoldintheUnitedStatesmustcomplywithFederal
CommunicationsCommission(FCC)guidelinesthatlimitRadioFrequency
(RF)energyexposures.TheFCCestablishedtheseguidelinesinconsultation

129
thesafetystandardsdevelopedbytheInstituteofElectricalandElectronic

TheInstituteofElectricalandElectronicEngineers(IEEE)isdeveloping
atechnicalstandardformeasuringtheRadioFrequency(RF)energy

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio
Frequency energy from my tablet?
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RadioFrequency(RF)energy.Sincetimeisakeyfactor
inhowmuchexposureapersonreceives,reducingtheamountoftime
spentusingatabletwillreduceRFexposure.Ifyoumustconductextended
conversationsusingawirelessdeviceeveryday,youcouldplacemore
distancebetweenyourbodyandthesourceoftheRF,sincetheexposure

aheadsetandcarrythetabletawayfromyourbodyoruseawireless
deviceconnectedtoaremoteantenna.Again,thescientificdatadoesnot

abovetoreduceyourRFexposurefromtabletuse.
10. What about children using tablets?
Thescientificevidencedoesnotshowadangertousersoftablets,including
childrenandteenagers.IfyouwanttotakestepstolowerexposuretoRadio

11. What about wireless communications device interference with
medical equipment?
RadioFrequency(RF)energyfromwirelesscommunicationsdevicescan
interactwithsomeelectronicdevices.Forthisreason,theFDAhelped
developadetailedtestmethodtomeasureElectroMagneticInterference
(EMI)ofimplantedcardiacpacemakersanddefibrillatorsfromwireless
devices.Thistestmethodisnowpartofastandardsponsoredbythe
AssociationfortheAdvancementofMedicalInstrumentation(AAMI).The
finaldraft,ajointeffortbytheFDA,medicaldevicemanufacturers,and
manyothergroups,wascompletedinlate2000.Thisstandardwillallow
manufacturerstoensurethatcardiacpacemakersanddefibrillatorsaresafe
fromwirelesscommunicationsdeviceEMI.
TheFDAhastestedhearingaidsforinterferencefromhandheldwireless
