Fetal loss and work in a waste water treatment plant.

R W Morgan, L Kheifets, D L Obrinsky, M D Whorton and D E Foliart

We investigated pregnancy outcomes in 101 wives of workers employed in a waste water treatment plant (WWTP), and verified fetal losses by hospital records. Paternal work histories were compiled and each of the 210 pregnancies was assigned a paternal exposure category. The relative risk of fetal loss was increased when paternal exposure to the WWTP occurred around the time of conception.
