Abstract

A cohort study among Coast Guard personnel involved in the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill response and non-responders was established to investigate potential acute and longterm health effects from oil spill response work exposures. Results showed positive associations between crude oil exposure and various acute physical symptoms among responders, as well as longer term health effects.
