EXHALED NITRIC OXIDE LEVELS (FENO) IN DIFFERENT INDUSTRY WORKERS

Abstract

Importance of measurement of Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) level has been increasing in recent years in the follow-up of many respiratory diseases, especially asthma. FeNO levels are known to be an indicator of airway inflammation. It is aimed to evaluate the FeNO measurement results in order to determine the risk in terms of occupational asthma in metal - casting, bakery, plastic and textile sectors.
