São poucos os documentos que, dentro deste tema, realçam medidas de proteção específicas. Os autores realizaram uma pesquisa com o objetivo de elaborar uma síntese do pouco que se escreveu sobre o subtema em causa.  Metodologia: Trata-se de uma Scoping Review, iniciada através de uma pesquisa realizada em setembro de 2019 nas bases de dados &#8220;CINALH plus with full text, Medline with full text, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Nursing and Allied Health Collection: comprehensive, MedicLatina, Academic Search Ultimate, Web of Science, SCOPUS e RCAAP&#8221;.  Conteúdo: Muitas atividades criam estes campos. Na maioria dos locais de trabalho a exposição é discreta e não existe risco relevante. Nos restantes casos, ainda assim, o risco dissipa-se com a distância à fonte. Para além disso, como a maioria destas situações é originada por um aparelho elétrico, quando este é desligado, o problema deixa de existir. Indivíduos particularmente expostos poderão ser as grávidas e indivíduos com dispositivos médicos ativos (estimuladores cardíacos, desfibriladores, implantes cocleares e do tronco cerebral, neuroestimuladores, bombas de infusão de fármacos e codificadores de retina). A nível de medidas de proteção coletiva, podem ser destacadas a blindagem/ isolamento com chapa ou malha metálica, cerâmica, plástico ou vidro; proteção com cortinas de luz; uso de aparelhos de leitura e tapetes sensíveis à pressão; mecanismo de paragem de emergência; restrição de acesso por guardas, barreiras, placas; sinalização de campo magnético/ radiação ionizante, sobretudo para indivíduos com implantes médicos ativos ou metálicos; proibição de objetos condutores; nomear o responsável pela gestão da segurança; formação acerca da posição do corpo durante o trabalho e limitação dos movimentos para atenuar a indução dos campos elétricos. Ainda que não seja difícil blindar os campos elétricos, atenuar os efeitos dos campos magnéticos é mais complicado. Para além disso, não é geralmente possível usar Equipamentos de Proteção Individual eficazes de forma uniforme, ou seja, se protege uma gama de frequências, dificilmente protegerá para outras. Como exemplos podem citar-se calçado de isolamento (sola de borracha espessa, com aço não); luvas adequadas em isolamento/ condução, óculos e fato integral.  Conclusões: Dada a omnipresença dos campos eletromagnéticos (ainda que, geralmente, em intensidades não muito preocupantes), seria relevante que os profissionais a exercer na Saúde Ocupacional tivessem algumas noções de como abordar o subtema. Para além disso, seria importante que algumas equipas tivessem oportunidade de investigar neste contexto, melhorando o serviço prestado ao cliente e, publicando os seus dados, contribuíssem para um melhor conhecimento relativo à realidade nacional e fizessem, de alguma forma, evoluir os conhecimentos científicos nesta área.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT  Introduction/ framework/ objectives: Electromagnetic fields are already very extensively developed in the scientific literature, however, doing so through a generalist approach and/ or highlighting the possible consequences for human health. There are few documents that, under this theme, describe specific protection measures. The authors conducted a research with the objective of elaborating a synthesis what was written about this subtheme.  Methodology: This is a Scoping Review, initiated at September 2019, in the databases &#8220;CINALH plus with full text, Medline with full text, Cochrane Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Nursing and Allied Health Collection: Comprehensive, MedicLatina, Academic Search Ultimate, Web of Science, SCOPUS and RCAAP&#8221;.  Content: Many activities create these fields. In most workplaces exposure is discrete and there is no relevant risk. In all other cases, however, the risk dissipates with distance from the source. In addition, as most of these situations originate from an electrical appliance, when it is switched off, the problem no longer exists. Particularly exposed individuals may be pregnant women and individuals with active medical devices (cardiac stimulators, defibrillators, cochlear and brain stem implants, neurostimulators, drug infusion pumps and retinal coders). In terms of collective protection measures, the shielding/ insulation with metal, ceramic, plastic or glass plate or mesh can be highlighted;as well as protection with light curtains; reading apparatus and pressure sensitive mats; restriction of access by guards, barriers, signs, magnetic field signaling/ ionizing radiation, especially to individuals with active or metallic medical implants; prohibition of conductive objects; appoint the person responsible for safety management; training about body position during work and limitation of movements to attenuate induction of electric fields. While it is not difficult to shield electric fields, mitigating the effects of magnetic fields is more complicated. Furthermore, it is generally not possible to use effective Personal Protective Equipment uniformly: if it protects a range of frequencies, it will hardly protect for others. Examples include insulation footwear (thick rubber sole, non-steel); suitable gloves in isolation/ driving, glasses and full suit.  Conclusions: Given the omnipresence of the electromagnetic fields (although generally at intensities of low concern), it would be relevant for occupational health practitioners to have some notions of how to approach the subtheme. In addition, it would be important for some teams to have the opportunity to investigate in this context, improve customer service and, by publishing their data, contribute to a better understanding of the national reality and somehow evolve scientific knowledge in this area.]]></p></abstract>
