Abstract:

Exposure to air pollutants by outdoor workers can predispose them to renal diseases. This study was carried out in Abia State Nigeria to assess the blood pressure and forced vital capacity (FVC) values of general outdoor workers. Measurement of blood pressure was taken with an electronic sphygmomanometer while the forced vital capacity was measured with a spirometer. A total of 322 subjects were used for the study. Results showed that the forced vital capacity (FVC) of 0-1000 was 5(1.56%) in Umuahia and 7(2.17%) in Aba; 1001-2000 was 34(10.56%) in Umuahia and 37(11.49%) in Aba; 2001-3000 was 8
