- W2081769923 abstract "ISEE-10 Introduction: Women working in less ventilated kitchens are prone to indoor pollution due to burning of natural cooking fuel and are likely to develop respiratory illness. Aim: To analyze the contributing factors and the presenting features & to suggest remedial measures to overcome exposure. Methods: Experimental data on “the contents of wood smoke in rural kitchen environment and its respiratory hazards in women” were collected and analyzed. Results: Contributing factors to respiratory illness were - small kitchens, less ventilation, use of firewood as cooking fuel and long hours of working. Women in kitchens were exposed to wood smoke constituted of total suspended particulate (TSP) and Benzo(a)Pyrene (BaP). The average TSP level was 7000mg/m3, which was far higher than the recommended level. Similarly, they were exposed to a high concentration of BaP, 4200 mg/m3. Women are exposed to these substances from a young age in villages. This exposure has resulted in chronic bronchitis, emphysema & asthma. As many women suffer from anaemia, pregnancy results in the worsening of their health status. Additionally, their respiratory symptoms are aggravated. Conclusion: Since many women of low socio-economic status work in unhealthy kitchen environments, it is imperative that they are taught awareness, early recognition of underlying illness, and ways of improving the kitchen environment. Support from women’s self-help groups and guidance from village health workers is also recommended. If these recommendations are not followed, these women are more likely to develop irreversible respiratory illness." @default.
