Headaches, upper respiratory irritation, fatigue, nausea, and membrane irritation are among the most common symptoms of Sick Building Syndrome, (SBS). Sick building syndrome is a term used to describe health effects that seem to be linked to building occupancy without any other diseases being detected. Causes of SBS are not easily recognizable. Complaints and symptoms are usually relieved after exiting the building. Diagnosis is based upon exclusion of other diseases and is determined by sampling and testing of indoor chemical or biological contaminants.
There are many sources of indoor air pollutants in buildings. They include: combustion sources, building materials, furnishings, cleaning products, personal care products, air duct systems, and bioaerosols such as bacteria and mold. Any of these contaminants can create poor indoor air quality and lead to symptoms of Sick Building Syndrome.
