background: heat stress is a common and usual problem in industries. several indices, including wet bulb globe temperature (wbgt), are used to evaluate heat stress. however, wbgt index has limitations such as high cost and response time. it is not thus suitable as a screening tool. heat strain scoring index (hssi) is also an observational-judgmental technique that has been developed for primary...
abstract introduction: heat stress risk assessment, as a harmful agent at workplace, is essential for controlling heat strain and heat stress effectively. this study is concerned with the relationship between physiological strain index (psi) and wet bulb globe temperature index (wbgt) in women in the climate chamber . methods: this experimental study was carried out on 36 healthy females in sit...
background heat is a harmful factor in workplaces that causes physiologic and cognitive changes in workers. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cooling vest on heat strain and reaction time while wearing chemical-biological-nuclear protective clothes. methods twelve male students with mean age of 25 ± 2 and body mass index (bmi) of 23 ± 1.5 were recruited in th...
conclusions the results showed that the heat stress increased by increasing air velocity and humidity in both groups. the air velocity with high humidity can be considered as a positive factor in the occurrence of heat strain. therefore, the incidence of heat stress decreases with the increase of humidity and reduction of air velocity or with increase of air velocity and reduction of humidity i...
Introduction: Workers in open pit iron ore mines are exposed to heat stress which can cause health and safety problems. The purpose of this study was to evaluate heat stress among open-pit mine workers of iron ore based on Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) index and also to investigate its relationship with physiological Strain. Material and Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted o...
results the results showed that the average hr at resting, sitting (32℃ ± 0.1℃), and light workload (30℃ ± 0.1℃) were 78.52 ± 12.10, 69.74 ± 11.98, and 110.78 ± 17.91 beat/min, respectively. the average of ear canal temperature was estimated at 36.70℃ ± 0.36℃ for sitting workload and at 36.71℃ ± 0.27℃ light workload. conclusions the findings of this study illustrated that the average hr and the...
background: work clothing can limit heat exchange between humans and the environment and cause thermal strain and heat-related disorders in workers. it can thus reduce both efficiency and productivity. the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of work clothing material on physiological strain index (psi) in climatic chamber. methods: an interventional study was conducted on 18 male s...
Introduction: Continuous exposure to cold air is considered to be a hazardous agent in the workplace in cold seasons. This study aimed to determine the level of cold strain and relation with physiological responses in auto mechanic employees in cold seasons. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the winter of 2017 on auto mechanic employees in Hamadan city. Physiological response...
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the effects of cooling vests on heat strain and reaction time while wearing protective clothing against chemical, biological, and radioactive contamination. Materials and Methods: Twelve male students with the mean age of 25 ± 2 years and mean body mass index (BMI) of 23.0 ± 1.5 kg/m2 were recruited in this experiment. Each student was asked to r...
Introduction: The incidence of heat stress is one of the most common problems in work environments as well as many different industries. The exposure of workers to heat results in heat strain. The purpose of the present study was to validate the Perceptual Strain Index through determining its relationship to the Physiological Strain Index and the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature Index und...
