1. INTRODUCTION

A. Purpose:

The purpose of' this report is to assist base level physicians and

othor health care providers in assessing possible health effects due to radiofrequency radiation (RFR) exposures.

B. Problem:

There is much confusion in the medical literature regarding RFR andits biological effects. Few health care providers have sufficient knowledge . .

of the physical sciences to be able to determine the validity of many medicalRFR studies. Because of these factors many medical reports on individualsthought to be exposed to RFR are either lacking in the scope necessary forcomplete examination, or more often, are unnecessarily broad. Worse yet,there is a tendency to attribute physical findings to RFR in the absence ofany reasonable correlation of RFR and the finding. This report is written in

the hope of alleviating some of these problems.

C. Scope:

'Thi:s report will present basic information regarding RFR, its biolog-ical effects and some of the thinking behind the current Air Force RFR safetyguideline, AFOSH Standard 161-9. Also included is a suggested OperatingInstruction (01) for a medical workup. It is intended as a clinical guide forclinicians and not as the final word on the science of RFR. Its contents mustbe viewed in this context.

II. DISCUSSION

Reading of AFOSH Standard 161-9, "Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation," '---'-

1 O,tober 1984 is recommended. This has a good section on biological effectsand I.ii information pertaining to RFR. Also recommended are the ACGIHThres.;hold Limit Values Handbook; Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values;and U2AFSAM-TR--83-1, Bioeffects of Radiofrequency Radiation.

RFI i.-; considered to be that portion of the electromagnetic spectrum from10 klV,. to 300 GHz. At its upper end it blends with long wave infrared. Itshare.s, all or its phyal3cal characteristics with other segments of the electro-mnagretic specI,'um; that is, it consists of component electric and magneticfields pro)pagat.ed in space as waves. The interaction of these waves withmattor depends on the wavelength, power and polarization of the wave and the-3ize, :-;hape, or'itntation and nature of the matter. In general, with regard tohurnri hfings, it can be said that the longer the wavelength the greater thede pth (t penetration into the body and the shorter the wavelength the less the(hpth of' penetration. Wavelengths of 3 cm or less (10 GHz or more) are,bsor'hed in the skin. Depth of penetration is only one factor; however,enerFy deposition is the key Issue. In general, the greatest absorption in,%adult humar:- takes place at 70 to 80 MHz if they are not grounded and 35 to 40Nil,, if' tht:y are. Specific conditions at the time of exposure may cause this

to vary. The mechanism for transfer of energy to human body by RFR is byvibration/rotation of dipole molecules, mainly water. The result is an-.increase in heat due to friction. An increase in temperature may or may notresult depending on the thermoregulatory properties of the body. Since todate no robust effect of RFR has been demonstrated that does not relate tothermogenesis, and since varying wavelengths deposit varying amounts ofenergy, the concept of specific absorption rate (SAR) was developed. This isa measure of the rate of energy transfer to the body normalized to body massand is equivalent to the power transferred. Heat generated is directly pro-portional to power absorbed. At a SAR of 4 W/kg the energy absorption withinthe human body may result in a detectable increase in core body or :[)pecificorgan temperature of one centigrade degree or less. The only demonstratedeffect in organs maintained at this increase over normal is a decrease inspermatogenesis due to heat. This decrease in spermatogenesis reverses oncooling. In addition, the body heat regulatory mechanisms of most normal

" individuals can adequately handle such loads. For comparison the average

running man generates 5 W/kg of metabolic heat and the human heart muscle cangenerate 33 W/kg. To ensure safety, the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) wasset at a SAR of 0.4 W/kg for frequencies above 3 MHz. This is averaged overany six-minute period. The curve of power density in mW/cm2 versus frequencywhich will give a SAR of 0.4 W/kg can be found in the ACGIH TLV handbook. Thesame curve presented as a table can be found in AFOSH Std 161-9, 12 October1984, entitled "Permissible Exposure Limits for Personnel."

In considering biological effects from the clinical standpoint, we shouldkeep in mind the pre-eminence of thermal effects as the agent of damage.Cataracts and vacuoles have been produced in animal eyes with power densitiesequal to or greater than 100 mW/cm 2 delivered locally and acutely for U-)minutes or more. This correlates with temperatures in the eye of 410C (1060F)or more. It has been difficult to produce cataracts in animals with wholebody RFR without killing the animal. In animals overexposed directly to the

eye all cataracts and vacuoles were present by the end of the third day.

At frequencies below 3 MHz the Air Force has adopted a maximum powerdensity of 100 mW/cm2 . Air may become ionized at frequencies over 10 KHz atapproximately 1,000 kV/m and can result in potentially hazardous electricdischarges. Because of this the PEL contains a 100 kV/m limit whichincorporates a safety factor of 10.

III. CONCLUSIONS

Specifically, then, we would look for thermal burn, signs of electricshock and/or burn, and fairly prompt cataract formation. Prompt evolution ofclinical problems should be expected. In a review of 296 suspected cases ofoverexposure in the USAFOEHL accident file, only 58 were in fact expos"ed abovethe PEL. About half of the 58 (26) clearly felt a warming an I terminated theexposure. Of those determined not to have been overexposed only 11% felt awarming sensation. By way of interpreting a warming sensation, 26 overex;oiedand 26 people not overexposed felt warming. This means that one i:3 :13 likelyas not to have been overexposed if warming is noticed. Conver.;cly, if nowarming is noticed there is only a 13% chance of having been overexposed.

Keep in mind al.so the safety factor of 10 in the PEL. Overexposure does not

necessarily mean exposure to biologically meaningful levels.

IV. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXAMINATION

A. History:

1. Present Illness. Where possible include the following

information:

a. Type of' equipment involved in the exposure with model number

and radio frequencies emitted.

b. Distance from the source to the person.

e. Length of time exposed.

d. if exposure was intermittent, then give longest individual

time exposed as well as overall time period exposed.

e. Were any unusual noises heard in the ears?

f. Was a sensation of heat experienced and if so, where on the

body?

g. What body parts does the person believe were exposed?

h. Does a previous history of RFR overexposure exist?

i. Does a previous history of overexposure to any chemical or

phy: ical igent exist?

2. Pa:-t Medical History.

a. list --ll types of work ever done, not only in the Air Force

but priev iisly, if applicable.

h. The remainder of the past medical history is standard.

3. Complete review of systems.

B. i Examination:

:;yst,.m Of primary interest are the eyes and skin. The signs to be

:3ought are cataracts and burns.

a. Eyes. Initial examination should describe the condition of

the ikin around the eyes as well as the eye Itself. Slit lamp examination:,hould be aenompli3hed as soon as practicable. If any question is raised by Cslit. 1imp 4xamination, referral should be made to an ophthalmologist for

dil ted sit lamp examination.

6b. Skin. Observe for signs of heat-induced change and electrical

burn. Note findings, to include negative findings.

c. The remainder of the examination should be as pertinent.

C. Laboratory Studies:

These should be as indicated.

No single test has any peculiar virtue. Routine tests, if done,

should be limited to CBC and UA. Any others done should be for clinicalreasons.

D. Referral:

If it is believed clinically necessary, referral for further workup of

specific conditions should be accomplished within the usual medical referringsystem. Only very unusual circumstances would warrant referrel outside theusual system. If there is a question regarding the need for referrel or whereit should be accomplished, consultation may be obtained from the UJAFOEHL'

Occupational Medical Consultant at AV 240-2002, Commercial (512) 536-2002 or

by electronic message.

E. Cautions:

1. These patients have a tendency to a great deal of anxiety based ontheir perceptions of an assault by an invisible agent. They're usuallyunfamiliar with the possible results of an overexposure and often have filledin the blanks of their knowledge with generalized fears of cancer and birth

defects. Unless you can see an obvious connection between a finding and theexposure, other than a temporal one, the exposure and the finding are probably

not connected. If you don't know, it is best to say that you don't but thatyou will find out.

2. Epidemlologlcal studies to date have not demonstrated any longterm consequences beyond those present at the time of the exposure.

3. Consultation may be obtained from the USAFOE[{L OccupationalMedical Consultant at Brooks AFB TX AV 240-2002.
