(a) of the medical records of Louisiana Summary
Second, the background
investigated cases are defined as follows: have lived or visited by CPSC standard confirmed the existence of imported dry wall housing, and officially reported deaths to the CPSC. The purpose of these case studies is to determine whether there is any document or clinical evidence that the death CPSC reports related to exposure to dry wall.
five, discussion
state public health departments based on medical records and available information on the research, contact with dry wall is not these imported cases of death factors. All have one or more of the dead and the import of dry wall, serious health problems unrelated to . the vast majority (9 out of 11) had many serious diseases.

in every state, the conclusions made by physicians, these physicians are experts in public health related organizations, professional knowledge and clinical experience. requires physicians in accordance with the practice of recognized standards to determine whether the deaths associated with exposure to dry wall. Every deaths are the conclusions of the study made independently. for each deceased tests were done using the available clinical evidence, including death, environment, impact factor, based on history, death, health status, and previous treatment history.
CPSC conducted the largest study of indoor air pollutants from the sample imports of dry wall 41 of housing complaints and 10 no complaints of housing. Detection of house less than one billionth of the concentration of hydrogen sulfide (about 0.66ppb [1]). such low concentrations in the atmosphere close to the concentration lower than most people can smell the concentration.
CPSC as a federal government agency responsible for assessing the import of dry wall and the relationship between health symptoms reported.
82-year-old victim of the state pathologist's medical records show that its died with chronic heart disease, acute cholecystitis and pneumonia. pathologist reported that no clinical evidence that the deceased died of medical records of summary
2008 年 11 since October, CPSC received imports began to dry wall housing tenants complaint, said they felt symptoms of the respiratory system, and that this and imported gas emissions related to dry wall. To this end, in March 2009, CPSC sent working groups to research, and other government departments to investigate and imported dry wall, including: Test samples of the chemical composition of dry wall, under controlled experimental conditions to test the dry wall emissions (gas) rate, measuring the use of imported dry wall housing the indoor air composition.
VI Conclusion
Overall, the research recognized medical institutions such cases, contact with imported dry wall is not a case of the 11 deaths of factors.

seven recommendations
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death from thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. The CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazard. The CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters, and household chemicals - contributed significantly to the decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 30 years.
survey found that the use of imported dry wall building sulfur compounds cause health problems did not reach the concentration of the detected concentration can not explain the CPSC received reports of adverse symptoms.
