Soil lead abatement and children's blood lead levels in an urban setting.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: The effect of abating soil lead was assessed among Baltimore children. The hypothesis was that a reduction of 1000 parts per million would reduce children's blood lead levels by 0.14 to 0.29 mumol/L (3-6 micrograms/dL).
METHODS: In 2 neighborhoods (study and control), 187 children completed the protocol. In the study area, contaminated soil was replaced with clean soil.
RESULTS: Soil lead abatement in this study did not lower children's blood lead.
CONCLUSIONS: Although it did not show an effect in this study, soil lead abatement may be useful in certain areas.
