Swimming Pool Chlorine Linked To Children’s Asthma
A new research has shown that boys who are more exposed to indoor chlorinated swimming pools have a higher risk of having asthma.
Dr Tony Ryan and other researchers of the University College Cork Pediatrics Department did a study of 6-12 year old boys who have been constantly into an indoor chlorinated swimming pool found significant link between children having asthma and how long a child has been swimming. They discover that those who have been swimming for longer have the higher tendency of developing asthma.
Researchers ask the parents of 121 boys in a national school in Cork city about the frequency of their boys swimming in indoor chlorinated pools. The results showed most of them swim once a week, and had been swimming for about five years in average.
According to the study, chlorine products used to treat swimming pools are of different variety, which includes the chlorine gas. When the chlorine treated water are mixed with organic matter like urine and sweat, a harmful mixture called nitrogen trichloride is created. Nitrogen trichloride is a renowned irritant to a person’s respiratory, thus frequent exposure to an indoor chlorinated swimming pool can cause the boys to be more likely to develop asthma.
Since the study has been made only to a small number of parents, pediatricians from Cork suggest that extra amount of efforts like providing enough ventilation in swimming pools and have their pools properly sanitized for the swimmers should be made while the link between respiratory health and chlorinated pools is further studied.
