Progress Report: Diagnostics of Health Disorders and Bio Monitoring in Aircraft Crew Members after "Fume Events"— Preliminary Results After Analyzing Patient Files
From 2014 to 2017 patients suffering from complex symptoms after fume events attended our University clinic. The patients’ files contain the clinical results from external clinics, from various UMG’s departments (occupational medicine, neuropathology, neurological clinic, eye clinic) as well as the results of human biomonitoring (HBM) which were applied, taking individual complaints into account. We underline the health impairment in the context of cabin air fume events and the necessity for further independent studies for analytical and clinical pathways. Evaluation of the clinical symptoms, the causing substances and the relevant contextual factors are required.
