The use of mobile phones among students of medical staff
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of Environmental Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
The purpose of our investigation was to access the level of mobile phone use by students and their daily expository of magnetic and electromagnetic fields (EMF). Material and method. The investigation was done on population of 205 students of the University "St. Clement of Ohrid", High Medical School - Bitola at age 20-25 years. The gender was: female 67% and male 33%. By our population differences of percentage by sex is not significant because the most of students for medical staff are female (nurse, midways). The students are fooling questioner by voluntary activity. Results. 30.5% of students have mobile phone more than 8 years. And 55% are in daily expository of one mobile phone. The most of them (84%) use it 1-2 hours on a day. The most of them (65%) are expository of mobile phone radiation because they carry it in clothes. The most of them (92%) sleep near phone, with turn on 90.3%, they have no health problems (74%, 83%) and 79% of them now about side effects of use mobile phone. Conclusion. It can be concluded adjacent and excessive use of mobile phones among students in healthcare professions. Therefore it is indispensably students to be educated to a higher level of the harmful effects of using mobile phones with such intensity and adjacent to the central nervous system.
