Abstract

Introduction: Nowadays, a lot of activities requiring the use of CELL PHONEs and exposing to their radiation. Given the importance of the issue and raised doubts about its effects, the aim of this study was to evaluate the electromagnetic fields of common CELL PHONEs and the correlations of the measured quantities with some health symptoms of USERS.Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 80 students and staff of Hamadan University of Medical Sciences in 2012. To measure the electric and MAGNETIC FIELDs as well as the power density of CELL PHONEs, Electrosmog Meter TES-593 was used. Meanwhile, some health symptoms of the USERS were recorded via a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using ANOVA, Chi-square and T-tests.Results: In all studied CELL PHONEs, the measured quantities (i.e. the intensities of electric and MAGNETIC FIELDs and power density) were highest in conversation mode. There were significant differences in mean power densities of the CELL PHONEs during conversation (P=0.001). There was significant correlation between the mean MAGNETIC FIELD intensity of the CELL PHONEs during conversation and headache (P=0.02) and anxiety (P=0.03) as well as between mean power density in the similar conditions and sleep deprivation (P=0.002).Conclusion: Although this study suggests a link between some self-reported symptoms and the intensities of electromagnetic fields of CELL PHONEs in line with other similar studies, the symptoms cannot be absolutely attributed to the use of the CELL PHONEs; Therefore, It is recommended to consider all aspects of caution including the reduction in exposing to CELL PHONEs radiation and selecting safer CELL PHONEs to prevent possible complications.
