Repercusión del tabaquismo pasivo en la función ventilatoria de los trabajadores de una fábrica de cigarros

Abstract

Se realiza un estudio descriptivo con el objetivo general de caracterizar funcionalmente el estado ventilatorio de 174 trabajadores, mediante la descripción del comportamiento de las pruebas funcionales respiratorias en los sujetos fumadores y no fumadores, previa identificación del hábito de fumar y del tabaquismo ambiental como factores de riesgo relevantes en la fábrica de cigarros «Orlando Nodarse». Se muestra en los resultados que todas las variables derivadas de las PFR presentaron valores anormales en una proporción elevada de los sujetos de manera global, y es predominante la presencia de trastornos ventilatorios restrictivos. No se encuentran diferencias significativas en los sujetos fumadores y no fumadores, lo que demostró valores anormales en cada una de las variables de las pruebas funcionales respiratorias estudiadas. Se derivan recomendaciones orientadas a lograr cambios de actitudes y mejoramiento de las condiciones ambientales en que se desenvuelven los trabajadores del centroA descriptive study is made on the basis of respiratory function tests applied to smoker and non-smoker subjects with the objective of functionally identifying the respiratory condition of 174 workers. Smoking habit and environmental tobacco smoke are previously identified as relevant risk factors in «Orlando Nodarse» cigarette factory. The results show that all the variables of the respiratory function tests generally yield anomalous values in a great number of subjects whereas restrictive respiratory disorders are predominant. No significant differences are found between smokers and non-smokers which brought about the existance of anomalous values in each of the variables of the respiratory function tests. Recommendations for a change of attitude and an improvement in the environmental working conditions of the factory are made
