The National Center for Environmental
Health proposes to conduct surveillance activities to identify the
prevalence of ciguatera fish poisoning in Texas Gulf Coast oil
rigs. This study will provide critical data in guiding efforts to
characterize the scope of ciguatera poisonings, to identify risk
factors, and to prevent an emerging illness associated with reef
ecosystems. A questionnaire will be administered to recreational
spear-fishers and hook-and-line anglers who have consumed fish
caught off the Texas Gulf coast.
