Abstract: BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine whether shortwave electromagnetic radiation in pulsed mode with a frequency of 45 Hz, promotes teratogenic changes, stillbirths and changes in organ weight at birth in the fetuses of pregnant rats exposed to this radiation. METHOD: Ten black Macole pregnant female rats were studied, 5 in a test group, subjected to electromagnetic radiation with an average power of 4.5 W for 15 minutes, on a daily basis, during the entire period of pregnancy and 5 in a control … Show more

“…Although numerous studies have been reported, only a few studies have focused on the SW band. Several studies found no significant association between congenital malformations of fetuses and SW radiation with non-thermal intensity [ 32 , 33 ]. Oliveira et al [ 33 ] conducted a study about the exposure of pregnant rats to SW electromagnetic athermal radiation.…”

“…Several studies found no significant association between congenital malformations of fetuses and SW radiation with non-thermal intensity [ 32 , 33 ]. Oliveira et al [ 33 ] conducted a study about the exposure of pregnant rats to SW electromagnetic athermal radiation. Five pregnant female rats were subjected to SW radiation with an average power of 4.5 W (similar to the exposure to clinical SW therapy) for 15 min daily and 20 days in total.…”
