Abstract

Introduction: Farmers that are exposed to the organic dust, bacteria, endotoxins, mites, and fungi, as well as the hazardous gases such as ammonia, sulfides, hydrogen and nitrogen oxides, may be affected by allergic asthma, non-allergic rhinitis, and organic dust toxic syndrome. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of respiratory symptoms and Spirometry parameters in two groups of poultry and livestock breeders in Yazd City. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive-analytic study was performed in Yazd on 300 Farmers. The questionnaire included demographic information, including age, work experience, cigarette smoking, the type of agricultural activity and respiratory symptoms among Farmers. Spirometry was performed in a sitting position after the animals were fed. Moreover, FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF25-75 were measured. T-test and logistic regression analysis were used for data analysis. Results: The results showed that respiratory capacity in the poultry workers was less than livestock breeders. Prevalence of Cough, sputum, shortness of breath, wheezing and rhinitis in poultry workers was significantly higher than those in livestock breeders. The most prevalent disorder in poultry workers was allergic rhinitis. With the exception of allergic rhinitis, respiratory symptoms increased with ageThe prevalence of respiratory symptoms was higher among smokers than non-smokers, but this difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Due to the high prevalence of respiratory symptoms among Farmers, agricultural mechanization and promotion of framers' knowledge about hea; th by implementing appropriate training programs is necessary.
