A prospective study of 94 asthmatic patients receiving attention at the family physician's office No. 43 from the "Antonio Maceo" Teaching Polyclinic in Cerro municipality, Havana City, was conducted. During a year (12 months in a row) we related their daily health status to the following primary air pollutants: nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide, and soot. The samples were analyzed at the Air Hygiene Laboratory of the National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Ministry of Public Health. The statistical analysis was made by using the intercrossing of variables, the multiple regression, and the step by step method of the SPSS/PC Plus statistical package. The parametric lineal correlation matrix was also calculated. There was a significant direct correlation among coryza, cough, asthma crises, and the primary air pollutants.

Palavras-chave : ASTHMA [epidemiology]; COMMON COLD [epidemiology]; COUGH [epidemiology]; SULPHUR DIOXIDE [toxicity]; NITROGEN DIOXIDE [toxicity]; AIR POLLUTANTS ENVIROMENTAL [toxicity].
