Detailed Description:
Kiryat Tivon is located close to a major industrial zone The aim of the study is to evaluate the health status of children living in K Tivon
The health status will be evaluated while using health questionnaires and spirometry
Objective To evaluate the respiratory health of K Tivon children with comparatives with respect to local air pollution levels
Material and Methods All the school children from K Tivon 1800 children will be included in the study after both parents and the children above 12 years of age will sign an informed consent form
First step A health questionnaire based on Hebrew version of ISAAC questionnaire will be filled in by the parents
Second step Spirometry checking of the children
In parallel air pollution levels will be measured and provided by a network of ground monitoring stations maintained by the Haifa District Municipality Association for the Environment HDMAE The station provides half-hourly measurement of mean concentrations of gaseous NOX SO2 O3 and particular PM 10 pollutants over the entire investigation window Additional meteorological data are also collected
Risk maps Using a GIS platform we are developing a multi-layer risk mapping procedure which accounts for ambient concentrations of selected pollutants and the heterogenic spatial distribution of several demographic and socio-economic indexes in the region
The prevalence of pulmonary disease will be evaluated according to the risk maps
The health status will be evaluated while using health questionnaires and spirometry
