RESUMEN
Se presenta un Protocolo de Vigilancia Sanitaria Específica, desarrollado tras un estudio desfavorable de calidad de aire ambiental en un animalario, en el que se informaba de la aparición de incremento por encima de los valores de seguridad de microorganismos potencialmente patógenos. Se recomendó desinfección del sistema de aire, mientras se priorizaron medidas preventivas y estudio médico-laboral específico a los trabajadores. Esta guía de actuación permitió efectuar prevención primaria y tratamiento precoz en caso de enfermedad. Además puede aplicarse en cualquier entorno laboral que requiera analizar la salud de los trabajadores en relación a la calidad del aire interior (AU)
ABSTRACT
We present a specific health survey protocol and guideline that has been developed after an unfavourable environmental air quality study at a research animalarium, in which an increase of potentially pathogenic microorganisms above and beyond the safety thresholds was reported. Disinfection of the ventilation system was recommended, while preventive measures and a specific occupational medical study of the workers involved were given priority. These guidelines allowed for primary prevention and early treatment if and when disease arose. It may furthermore be also applied in any occupational environment requiring an analysis of workers´ health as related to environmental air quality (AU)
