摘要
Environmental factors underlie more than one-fifth of deaths and disability worldwide. Globally, both indoor and outdoor particulate matter pollution are leading risk factors for reduced quality of life and death. Nurses are in a key position to assess particulate matter exposure and to intervene, providing population, community, family, and individual risk reduction and care. This article presents a case study describing one patient's experiences with asthma and multiple comorbidities, an overview of particulate matter exposure and health, and management strategies for practice.
