Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) Exposure and Health Outcomes in Firefighters
Purpose:
Firefighters using PFAS firefighting foams are the highest-exposed group in Australia. PFAS can remain in the body for many years. The national firefighter cancer and mortality cohort will be updated and PFAS exposure identified for different groups. The cancer risk, specifically testicular and kidney cancer, for firefighters exposed to different amounts of PFAS will be investigated. Other outcomes, such as thyroid, liver or kidney disease will be investigated by linkage to health data sets.
