A $500,000 grant to check indoor and outdoor air temperature
Indoor Environment and Emergency Response Health Outcomes| Research Project Database | Grantee Research Project | ORD | US EPA
Indoor Environment and Emergency Response Health Outcomes
EPA Grant Number: R835749
Title: Indoor Environment and Emergency Response Health Outcomes
Investigators: Uejio, Christopher K ,Tamerius, James D
Institution: Florida State University ,University of Iowa
EPA Project Officer: Ilacqua, Vito
Project Period: May 1, 2015 through April 30, 2018
Project Amount: $500,000
Approach:
This innovative study design observes indoor environment conditions of people receiving care for emergency distress calls i.e., 911 in two climatologically-distinct study cities: New York, NY and Jacksonville, FL. Beneficially, this study design 1) directly observes indoor exposures that may precedes distress calls and 2) targets vulnerable individuals. Small temperature and humidity sensors will accompany paramedics into patient households and monitor indoor conditions. Generalized Linear and Mixed Effects Models will relate outdoor weatherconditions,
