| Abstract | The purpose of this document is to provide an overarching framework for a more complete assessment of children's exposure to environmental agents and the resulting potential health risks within the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) risk assessment paradigm. This Framework examines the impact of potential exposures during developmental lifestages and subsequent lifestages, while emphasizing the iterative nature of the analysis phase with a multidisciplinary team. In addition to outlining the risk assessment process from a lifestage perspective, the document points to published sources for more detailed information. Guidance, policies, and other relevant materials are referenced in the document and linked electronically (when copyright allows) to the actual reference documents for easy access. In addition, many terms are included in a glossary at the end of this document. This Framework is a conceptual overview of the considerations for evaluation of early-life exposures and subsequent outcomes and does not constitute EPA guidance defined as a step-by-step process or standard operating procedure. |
