Abstract
Un estudio descriptivo Correlacional en una población de 66 trabajadores de los 22 grifos en el distrito de Lurín, usando un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia encuestando a 36 trabajadores y 36 personas del grupo control, divididos en 7 grupos etarios entre las edades de 18 a 66 años, determinando los efectos neurológicos-comportamentales generales, sensitivos, motores, cognitivos, estados de ánimo y la personalidad. Los resultados obtenidos al 100% del personal que trabaja en grifos presentaban olor a gasolina, no poseían los equipos de protección personal y reportaban derrame de gasolina en manos y/o en el suelo. Los resultados de los efectos neurológicos-comportamentales nocivos: generales en los trabajadores es de 56% a diferencia del 44% del grupo control; efectos sensitivos en los trabajadores es de 52% a diferencia del 48% del grupo control; efectos motores en los trabajadores es de 57% a diferencia del 43% del grupo control; efectos cognitivos en los trabajadores es de 47% a diferencia del 53% del grupo control; estados de ánimo y la personalidad en los trabajadores es de 57% a diferencia del 43% del grupo control. Además, se observó que los efectos generales aumentan en relación al tiempo de 6-12 meses tienen un 14% de efectos generales a diferencia del personal que laboran de 13-36 meses que tiene un 15% y los que laboran de 37-72 meses tiene 17%, resultados que se repiten en efectos sensitivos, de estado de ánimo y la personalidad, efectos motores y efectos cognitivos. Concluyendo que existe relación entre la exposición a solventes orgánicos aromáticos desprendidos en grifos y las alteraciones neurológicos-comportamentales nocivos en sus trabajadores, los cuales se incrementan por los años de servicio.
A descriptive study was carried out in a population of 66 workers from the 22 faucets in the Lurín district, using non-probabilistic sampling for convenience, surveying 36 workers and 36 people from the control groups divided into 7 age groups between the ages of 18 and 66, determining the general neurological-behavioral, sensory, motor, cognitive, moods and personality. The results obtained to 100% of the personnel working on faucets had a gasoline smell, lacked personal protective equipment and reported gasoline spillage in hands and / or soil. The results of harmful neurological-behavioral effects: general in workers is 56% as opposed to 44% in the control group; sensory effects on workers is 52% as opposed to 48% of the control group; motor effects in workers is 57% as opposed to 43% in the control group; cognitive effects in workers is 47% as opposed to 53% in the control group; moods and personality in workers is 57% as opposed to 43% of the control group. In addition, it was observed that the general effects increase in relation to the time of 6-12 months they have a 14% of general effects as opposed to the personnel that work of 13-36 months that has 15% and those that work of 37-72 months has 17%, repeated results in sensory, mood and personality effects, motor effects and cognitive effects. Concluding that there is a relationship between the exposure to aromatic organic solvents given off in faucets and the harmful neurological-behavioral alterations in their workers, which are increased by years of service
