Resumo(s)

Chemical contamination is a reality in the healthcare environment but unfortunately is rarely studied. However, if we consider that healthcare workers use a high diversity of products such as disinfectants, sterilizers, anesthetic gases, and much other is easy to recognize that workers and patients can be exposed to a complex mixture of chemicals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in Primary Health Care Centers (PHCC) located in Lisbon.
