Opinion on the safety of medical devices containing DEHP- plasticized PVC or other plasticizers on neonates and other groups possibly at risk (2015 update)

Metadaten zur Veröffentlichung

The present Opinion is an update carried out by SCENIHR on its previous 2008 Opinion on the safety of medical devices containing di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) or alternative plasticizers for their polyvinylchloride (PVC) based components. Even though most of the 2008 opinion remains valid, new studies on DEHP activity and alternative agents are available. Therefore, the scientific information published from 2008 and onwards was reviewed and evaluated by SCENIHR. The Opinion is mainly concerned with the potential health risks for patients with high exposure to DEHP or related plasticizing compounds leaching from medical devices.
