Abstract(s)
Em 2017 foi produzido um conjunto de recomendações em matéria de
operações urbanísticas na reconversão de áreas industriais com solos
contaminados. Estas recomendações incluem várias fases de preparação
de um projeto de planeamento urbano. A adoção plena destas recomendações
nas operações de reconversão de áreas industriais em urbanas
poderá ter impacte na saúde humana. Como tal, foi proposto uma avaliação
de impacte na saúde (Health Impact Assessment - HIA) com o objetivo
de analisar o impacte da adoção das recomendações nas operações de
reconversão. Foi implementado um estudo urbanístico na reconversão de
áreas industriais com solos contaminados. Este trabalho foi realizado no
âmbito do Programa de Treino em Health Impact Assessment e descreve
as etapas de screening e scoping que foram desenvolvidas utilizando as
ferramentas propostas pelo Instituto de Saúde Pública da Irlanda. Foram
realizados focus groups com elementos de instituições públicas da área
da saúde humana para preencher as ferramentas. Com base numa revisão
da literatura, foi desenvolvido um modelo conceptual de exposição para
identificar as principais vias de exposição e os efeitos na saúde associados
a serem avaliados no âmbito do HIA. A análise efetuada na fase de
screening, realizada considerando os possíveis impactes na saúde, levou
a que se continuasse o desenvolvimento deste HIA. O modelo conceptual
de exposição desenvolvido na fase de scoping permitiu identificar como
principal via de exposição da população residente a exposição por inalação
de compostos voláteis.
In 2017 a set of recommendations regarding urban operations in the reconversion of industrial areas with contaminated soils were produced. These recommendations included several phases of preparation of the urban planning project. The full adoption of these recommendations in all reconversion operations from industrial into urban areas may have impacts on the human health. A Health Impact Assessment (HIA) was proposed with the aimto analyze the impact on human health of the adoption of these recommendations in urbanization operations in the reconversion of industrial areas with contaminated soils. The present work is included in a training programme in Health Impact Assessment and describes the screening and scoping phases developed using the tools proposed by the Institute of Public Health in Ireland. Several focus groups with elements from public institutions with competences in the human health area were conducted to fill the screening and scoping tools. Based on a literature review, a comprehensive causal pathway was developed to identif y main exposure routes and respective health ef fects to be evaluated in the HIA scope. Results from the screening, considering the possible health impacts, lead to the fur ther development of the HIA. The conceptual exposure model developed in the scoping allowed to identif y as main exposure pathway for the resident population the inhalation of volatile compounds.
