Title

PREVALENCE OF CARDIPULMONARY RISK FACTORS AMONG INDUSTRIAL WORKERS.

Abstract

The aim of the study is to find out the prevalence of cardiopulmonary risk factors among industrial workers. Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted among 372 subjects aged between 25-45 years who were recruited from twelve industries through cluster sampling method and interviewed. Technical, skilled professionals who were working for more than five years were included in this study. The data was collected using a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire. Questions were adopted from WHO STEPS questionnaire[7]. The questionnaire was used to elicit information from each study participant for socio‐demographic characteristics, lifestyle‐related factors and physical and bio-chemical measurements, lifestyle‐related factors, physical and bio-chemical measurements. Result Analysis: A face to face semi-structured interview was done among 494 industrial workers. In total participants (n=372) 81% were male population and 19% were female. Average age of participants was 33.2±8. 90% of participants were liberated and above secondary. Physical and biochemical parameter showed mean pulse rate of 75.04 ± 8.85 beats/min. About 40.6 % were pre-hypertensive. Body mass index (BMI) was at increased risk and at high risk for 44.1 % of the participants as per the BMI for Asian classification. Almost half of them had central obesity. Hyperglycemia was seen in 6.2 % and dyslipidemia in 65.5 % of the workers . HDL level was decreased in 65.8% of participants. Conclusion: There is high prevalence of CVD risk factors among industrial workers. Although the study population was not representative of general industrial population we believe that it does represent the similar kind of CVD risk factors burden among many of medium and large size industries.
