Abstract

AIM: Kocaeli is one of the most industrialized cities of Turkey. Many industrial facilities in terms of air pollution, constitute a risk. Because of Kocaeli’s location, which is on the junction of Turkey’s whole motorway transport, increases the importance of this issue. The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not a relationship between air pollution measurement parameters (SO2 and PM) and Myocard Infarction (MI) related hospitalizations. METHOD: In this study, the relationship between MI related hospitalizations which occured in Kocaeli in 2004 and measurements of SO2 and PM were investigated. Study was analytical type and case-crossover (CCO) design was used. RESULTS: Three hospitals’ (which have coronary intensive care units and which are located in Kocaeli) patient records have been searched and a total of 428 MI related hospitalizations have been identified in data collecting phase, and it’s determined that these 428 hospitalizations were involving 417 individuals. Of the 428 hospitalization records, 318 were eligible for CCO analysis criteriae and included to analyze. CONCLUSION: In conclusion by investigating the relationship between MI related hospitalizations and measured SO2 and PM levels in Kocaeli, we found that a 10 μg/m3 increase in SO2 levels, significantly increase the risk of MI in cold season (October-March).

Özet

AMAÇ: Kocaeli, Türkiye’nin en endüstrileşmiş şehirlerinden biridir. Pek çok sanayi tesisi hava kirliliği açısından risk oluşturmaktadır. Kocaeli Türkiye’nin tüm karayolu taşımacılığının kavşak noktasında yer aldığından konunun önemi artmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, hava kirliliği ölçüm parametrelerinden kükürt dioksit (SO2) ve partiküler madde (PM) düzeyi ile myokard enfarktüsü (MI) nedenli hastane yatışları arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığının saptanmasıdır. YÖNTEM: Bu araştırmada 2004 yılı içerisinde Kocaeli İli’nde gerçekleşen MI nedenli yatışlar ile SO2 ve PM ölçümleri arasındaki ilişki irdelenmiştir. Araştırma analitik tipte bir çalışma olup, Case-crossover (çapraz vaka kontrol, ÇVK) tasarımı kullanılmıştır. BULGULAR: Araştırma kapsamında 2004 yılı içerisinde Kocaeli’de koroner yoğun bakım ünitesi olan üç hastanenin kayıtlarından 428 MI yatış verisine ulaşılmıştır. Bu kayıtların 417 bireye ait olduğu saptanmıştır. Ulaşılan 428 MI kaydının uygunluk ölçütleri açısından 318’i ÇVK analizine dahil edilmiştir. SONUÇ: Sonuç olarak, Kocaeli’de MI nedenli hastaneye yatışlar ile ölçülmüş SO2 ve PM düzeyleri arasındaki ilişki incelenerek, SO2 düzeylerindeki 10 μg/m3 bir artışın MI geçirme riskini soğuk sezonda (Ekim-Mart) anlamlı olarak arttırdığı tespit edilmiştir.
