dc.descriptionSe requieren intervenciones culturalmente significativas para prevenir la exposición al plomo de los recicladores de baterías. El ácido sulfúrico utilizado en las baterías causa lesiones en la piel y podría facilitar el reconocimiento de los peligros. Este estudio exploró si la exposición conjunta al plomo y al ácido sulfúrico puede usarse en intervenciones para manejar condiciones de trabajo peligrosas. Se recopilaron datos de 120 trabajadores informales y se midió el nivel de plomo en la sangre. Los predictores de los niveles de plomo en la sangre se exploraron utilizando un modelo tobit. La mediana del nivel de plomo en sangre fue de 9,45 µg / dL (Q75-Q25: 48,9 µg / dL); cuando ocurrió la exposición al plomo y al ácido sulfúrico, el nivel aumentó a 11.44 µg / dL, y cuando ocurrió la exposición al plomo y otras sustancias, el nivel fue de 11.50 µg / dL. Los trabajadores desconocen los riesgos de una exposición crónica silenciosa aguda y obvia. Las futuras intervenciones preventivas podrían enfrentar los beneficios económicos del reciclaje de baterías con el reconocimiento de la susceptibilidad y la gravedad relacionadas con la exposición al plomo y al ácido sulfúricospa
dc.description.abstractCulturally significant interventions to prevent lead exposure of battery recyclers are required. Sulfuric acid used in batteries causes skin lesions and could facilitate the recognition of hazards. This study explored whether joint exposure to lead and sulfuric acid can be used in interventions to manage hazardous work conditions. Data were collected from 120 informal workers, and the blood lead level was measured. Predictors of blood lead levels were explored using a tobit model. The median blood lead level was 9.45 µg/dL (Q75-Q25: 48.9 µg/dL); when lead and sulfuric acid exposure occurred, the level increased to 11.44 µg/dL, and when exposure to lead and other substances occurred, the level was 11.50 µg/ dL. Workers are unaware of the risks of obvious and acute silent chronic exposure. Future preventive interventions could confront the economic benefits of battery recycling with the recognition of susceptibility and severity related to lead and sulfuric acid exposurespa
