Abstract
Health impacts of household energy use: indicators of exposure to air pollution and other risks.
Highlights
The information gained from national surveys is essential for monitoring performance towards health goals and targets and informing allocation of resources for health priorities
No solid fuel stove has yet resulted in indoor air pollution concentrations that meet World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, measuring PM2.5 could improve understanding of which technologies and fuels are truly effective at reducing exposures.[6]
We have not assessed the resources needed for designing significant changes to national surveys, which may result in changes to sampling schemes and the workload of interviewers
