Translation of "champ de résonance psychique " (French → English) :

Definition: A transient disorder that develops in an individual without any other apparent mental disorder in response to exceptional physical and mental stress and that usually subsides within hours or days. Individual vulnerability and coping capacity play a role in the occurrence and severity of acute stress reactions. The symptoms show a typically mixed and changing picture and include an initial state of daze with some constriction of the field of consciousness and narrowing of attention, inability to comprehend stimuli, and disorientation. This state may be followed either by further withdrawal from the surrounding situation (to the extent of a dissociative stupor - F44.2), or by agitation and over-activity (flight reaction or fugue). ...[+++] Autonomic signs of panic anxiety (tachycardia, sweating, flushing) are commonly present. The symptoms usually appear within minutes of the impact of the stressful stimulus or event, and disappear within two to three days (often within hours). Partial or complete amnesia (F44.0) for the episode may be present. If the symptoms persist, a change in diagnosis should be considered. | Acute:crisis reaction | reaction to stress | Combat fatigue Crisis state Psychic shock

(3) After the entry into force of Directive 2004/40/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields), serious concerns were expressed by stakeholders, in particular from the medical community, as to the negative impact which the implementation of that Directive would have on, on the one hand, certain industrial activities, and, on the other hand, certain medical procedures based on medical imaging, in particular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Workers exposed to electromagnetic fields from magnetic resonance imaging shall still be covered by the protective measures set out in this Directive.

Will the Commission commit to an amendment to the Electromagnetic Fields Directive (2004/40/EC), given consensus among leading scientific experts in this field on the damage this directive will inflict on the future development and provision of medical devices across the EU, in particular the consequence for clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which is potentially disastrous?

(EN)Directive 2004/40/EC of the Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risk arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields) is designed to protect workers against excessive exposure to MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and electromagnetic fields which scientific experts agree is dangerous for health as well as other radiations.
