Finding F-0727
“Use of other stoves (wood, gas; <1% of sample) was associated with a 34% reduction in mean CO exposure, but this difference was not significant.”
Structure
- Source
- Wood
- Factor
- Carbon monoxide (CO)
- Population
- primary cooks
- Setting
- personal exposure of the primary cook in the household, ZM
- Study design
- quasi-experimental evaluation of two improved cookstove programmes in Lusaka, Zambia: 24-hour personal exposure to carbon monoxide (747 measurements) and PM2.5 (90) of primary cooks at baseline in the cool season of 2019 and at endline in the warm season, with difference-in-differences and generalised least squares models of log-transformed exposure against stove group, season, neighbourhood, cooking location, ventilation, stove-influenced hours and expenditure (class 3)
- Effect
- difference 34
- Sample
- 747 measurements
- Caveat
- fewer than 1 % of the sample used these stoves, so the estimate rests on very few measurements
