我们回顾了文献室内空气质量（IAQ），通风和建筑物相关的健康问题，在学校和确定常见的建筑物相关的健康症状，涉及学校，直到1999年。我们收集了现有的通风率，二氧化碳（CO（2））浓度和室内空气污染物的相关数据，并评估了污染物暴露和健康症状之间的因果关系的信息。报告的通风和CO（2）数据强烈表明，许多教室通风不足，可能导致健康症状。充分通风应是设计或补救工作的主要重点。报告了总挥发性有机化合物、甲醛和微生物污染物。低浓度的甲醛不太可能引起急性刺激症状（
We reviewed the literature on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), ventilation, and building-related health problems in schools and identified commonly reported building-related health symptoms involving schools until 1999. We collected existing data on ventilation rates, carbon dioxide (CO(2) ) concentrations and symptom-relevant indoor air contaminants, and evaluated information on causal relationships between pollutant exposures and health symptoms. Reported ventilation and CO(2) data strongly indicate that ventilation is inadequate in many classrooms, possibly leading to health symptoms. Adequate ventilation should be a major focus of design or remediation efforts. Total volatile organic compounds, formaldehyde (HCHO) and microbiological contaminants are reported. Low HCHO concentrations were unlikely to cause acute irritant symptoms (
