12. Proposed GT Indoor Air Quality Measurements
Monitor changes in asthma exacerbations and indoor air exposures with the GTRI asthma monitoring system
Monitor exposures of selected volunteers with passive VOC monitors
Match hospital admissions changes with indoor and outdoor AQ measurements
First bullet additional comments: There will be a selected group of pediatric patients and the AIRS will be placed in the volunteers’ bedrooms.
