In January 2002, Health Canada released the Final Report of the Expert Advisory Panel on DEHP in Medical Devices. This fact sheet provides a summary of the Expert Panel’s findings. The Panel made recommendations based on a 2001 Health Canada review entitled “DEHP in Medical Devices: An Exposure and Toxicity Assessment,” and external studies, including the most recent findings of the US National Toxicology Program’s Center for the Evaluation of Risks to Human Reproduction (NTP-CERHR) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
