Abstract: The relationship between indoor air environment and elderly with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) was reviewed through literature research in this paper. In heat and humidity environment, studies have shown that changes in heat environment such as high temperature, cold and step-changes were highly associated with cardiovascular diseases in the elderly. The influence of air humidity on cardiovascular diseases was uncertain. In indoor air quality, PM10, PM2.5, CO, SO2, NO2 and ozone had correlation with cardiovascular diseases in the elderly, with the higher incidence and mortality resulting from higher concentrations of pollutants. It is significant to establish the relationship between indoor air environment and elderly cardiovascular diseases in different climatic zones. The multi-parameter joint action of indoor air environment and comprehensive characterization and evaluation method will be the future research orientation. In addition, the combined field of medicine and engineering may provide more research ideas for environmental and health issues in the future.

Prev One:The influence of ventilation mode and personnel walking behavior on distribution characteristics of indoor particles

Next One:Common SVOCs in house dust from urban dwellings with schoolchildren in six typical cities of China and associated non-dietary exposure and health risk assessment
