Abstract A Greek oil-tanker ran aground, resulting in a huge oil spill along the costal areas of Karachi, Pakistan. The purpose of this study was to assess the lung function and follow up change after one year in subjects exposed to crude oil spill in sea water. It was a cross sectional study with follow up in 20 apparently healthy, non-smoking, male workers, who were exposed to a crude oil spill environment during oil cleaning operation. The exposed group was matched with 31 apparently healthy male control subjects. Pulmonary function test was performed using an electronic Spirometer. Subjects exposed to polluted air have significant reduction in forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV 1), forced expiratory flow (FEF 25–75%) and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) compared to their matched controls. This impairment was reversible and lung functions parameters were improved when the subjects were withdrawn from the polluted air environment.

This impairment was reversible and lung functions parameters were improved when the subjects were withdrawn from the polluted air environment.
The lung function and follow up change after one year in subjects exposed to crude oil spill in sea water were assessed. Spirometric measurements were used to assess lung volumes and flows and ideally suited to describe the effects of obstruction or restriction on lung function. Statistical analysis used a student's t-test for independent group. The mean duration of exposure in subjects exposed to crude oil spill was 13.30 plus or minus 1.05 days, range 3-17 days. The subjects exposed to crude oil spill had impaired lung function. The impairment was reversible and lung functions impairment was reversed and improved after one year when the exposed group was away from crude oil exposure. The workers exposed to vanadium compounds during cleaning of boilers developed acute changes in lung function.

The exposed group was matched with 31 apparently healthy male control subjects. Pulmonary function test was performed using an electronic Spirometer. Subjects exposed to polluted air have significant reduction in forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV sub(1)), forced expiratory flow (FEF sub(2) sub(5) sub(-) sub(7) sub(5) sub(%)) and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) compared to their matched controls. This impairment was reversible and lung functions parameters were improved when the subjects were withdrawn from the polluted air environment.
