Abstract

Refractory ceramic breaks are non-crystalline or amorphous made from melted kaolin clay or a combination of AlI02 and Si02, and they can produce OBSTRUCTIVE AIRWAY DISEASEs. This descriptive and cross sectional study was performed on 145 workers of a refractory ceramic break factory in Isfahan. Respiratory symptoms and pulmonary function were evaluated using SPIROMETRY, physical examination and a questionnaire. Mean age of the participants was 39.5±7.62 (26-61) year, and 33 workers (22.8%) were smokers. Noisy breathing was detected in 38 cases (26.2%) and noisy breathing along with dyspnea was detected in 33 cases (22.8%) of the sample. Pulmonary function tests revealed evidence of OBSTRUCTIVE AIRWAY DISEASE in 63 workers (43.3%) and small airway disease in 81 cases (55.9%). The prevalence of airway diseases in this factory was higher than that of the western countries' refractory workers. Therefore it is import to promote the safety measures as well as workers' knowledge for implementing them.
