Abstract

Background: It is important to determine the prevalence of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) symptoms in school Students and Teachers, which is relevant to the physical environment of the building. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of sick building syndrome in Students and Teachers of guidance schools in Babol. Abstract Methods: This descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study was carried out in 15 guidance schools in Babol in the winter of 2018, among 150 Students and 95 Teachers. The MM040EA (Miljomedicine040) questionnaire was used to collect data and was completed by interview. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test. Results: Among the 12 symptoms of SBS, 50. 7% of Students had fatigue, and 44. 7% had headaches. There was a significant correlation between heavy headedness (p = 0. 42) and headache (p = 0. 029) with Students’ gender. There was a significant correlation between the Teachers’ gender with the redness or dryness of facial skin (p = 0. 015), redness or itching of hands (p = 0. 009) and also fatigue (p = 0. 003). There was a significant correlation between the symptoms of the SBS with very high temperature in the Students (p = 0. 050), and with the noises (p = 0. 40) in the Teachers. Conclusion: The present study showed that more than half of the Students and Teachers had symptoms of SBS. Since the symptoms of SBS are associated with some physical conditions of the classroom and school environment, the health condition of the schools should be annually checked for all aspects.
