    In questo lavoro viene affrontato il problema della valutazione delle condizioni termoigrometriche negli ambienti di lavoro termicamente moderati. Dopo un breve richiamo ai principi fondamentali del comfort termico, vengono definiti gli indici di comfort globale e locale e viene illustrata la problematica della valutazione soggettiva. Infine, viene proposto un protocollo di valutazione

    INDOOR AIR QUALITY: SUGGESTIONS FOR RISK ASSESSMENT AND MEDICAL SURVEILLANCE. This paper presents indications for investigations and health surveillance in indoor environments. The study of the indoor air quality consists of the following phases: acquisition of the necessary information about the indoor environment; sampling strategy and techniques; qualitative and quantitative analysis of contaminants such as particulate, CO2 and CO, NOx, volatile organic compounds, biological agents. The proposed health surveillance is articulated on four lines: periodical health surveillance, when already performed for other risks (e.g. VDT); specific clinical examinations in occasion of particular events; use of a questionnaire for the evaluation of comfort of the workers; health promotion. A team approach, with cooperation between technical and medical experts, is recommended both for periodical risk assessment and when it is necessary to solve specific indoor problems
