EUROPAEM EMF Guideline 2016 for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of EMF-related health problems and illnesses

摘要: Chronic diseases and illnesses associated with non-specific symptoms are on the rise. In addition to chronic stress in social work environments, physical chemical exposures at home, work, during leisure activities causal or contributing environmental stressors that deserve attention by general practitioner as well all other members of health care community. It seems necessary now take "new exposures" like electromagnetic fields (EMF) into account. Physicians increasingly confronted problems from unidentified causes. Studies, empirical observations, patient reports clearly indicate interactions between EMF exposure problems. Individual susceptibility factors frequently neglected. New wireless technologies applications have been introduced without any certainty about their effects, raising new challenges for medicine society. For instance, issue so-called non-thermal effects potential long-term low-dose were scarcely investigated prior introduction these technologies. Common field sources: Radio-frequency radiation (RF) (3 MHz 300 GHz) is emitted radio TV broadcast antennas, Wi-Fi access points, routers, clients (e.g. smartphones, tablets), cordless mobile phones including base stations, Bluetooth devices. Extremely low frequency electric (ELF EF) magnetic MF) Hz 3 kHz) electrical wiring, lamps, appliances. Very (VLF kHz MHz) emitted, due harmonic voltage current distortions, lamps compact fluorescent lamps), electronic On one hand, there strong evidence certain EMFs a risk factor such cancers, Alzheimer's disease, male infertility. emerging hypersensitivity (EHS) more recognized authorities, disability administrators case workers, politicians, courts law. We recommend treating EHS clinically part group multisystem (CMI), but still recognizing underlying cause remains environment. beginning, occur only occasionally, over time they may increase severity. include headaches, concentration difficulties, sleep problems, depression, lack energy, fatigue, flu-like symptoms. A comprehensive medical history, which should occurrences spatial temporal terms context exposures, key making diagnosis. The usually assessed measurements home work. Certain types can be asking common sources. very important individual primary method treatment mainly focus prevention reduction exposure, is, reducing eliminating sources high workplace. also extended public spaces schools, hospitals, transport, libraries enable persons an unhindered use (accessibility measure). If detrimental reduced sufficiently, body has chance recover will even disappear. Many examples shown measures prove effective. To effectiveness treatment, broad range contribute total burden addressed. Anything supports homeostasis person's resilience against disease thus adverse exposure. There increasing major impact oxidative nitrosative regulation capacity affected individuals. This concept explain why level change reported so large. Based our understanding, approach minimizes peroxynitrite - used works best. Guideline gives overview knowledge regarding EMF-related risks provides recommendations diagnosis, accessibility improve restore outcomes development strategies prevention.
