The venous blood lead levels of 400 children under 16 years of age who lived in Port Kembla or in Cocklecreek, and of 202 patients in several New South Wales hospitals are reported and compared with criteria announced by the National Health and Medical Research Council, the European Economic Community, and the American Environmental Protection Agency. The results of this study do not show reason for concern. The samples from hospital patients stress the importance of domestic exposure, such as to flaking paint containing lead. The findings of this study are also compared with a Victorian and a New South Wales survey of schoolchildren.
报告了居住在肯布拉港或科克莱克里克的400名16岁以下儿童以及新南威尔士州几家医院的202名患者的静脉血铅水平，并将其与澳大利亚国家卫生与医学研究委员会、欧洲经济共同体和美国环境保护局公布的标准进行了比较。这项研究结果没有显示出令人担忧的理由。医院患者的样本强调了家庭接触的重要性，比如接触含铅的剥落油漆。还将这项研究的结果与维多利亚州和新南威尔士州对学童的调查结果进行了比较。
