Integrated Air Quality Index(CAI)

· It is an air pollution expression method developed in consideration of the impact on the human body and perceived pollution level according to the air pollution level, in order to make it easier for the public to know the measured air pollution level and to present action guidelines to prevent damage from air pollution to the public.

Conditions	Detail
Good	(0 - 50) A level that does not cause an effect even in patients with air pollution-related diseases
Fair	(51 - 100) Levels that may cause minor effects in case of chronic exposure to the patient population
Bad	(101 - 250) A level that can cause harmful effects to patients and sensitive groups, and a level that the general public can experience discomfort in health
Very bad	(251 - 350) Serious effects upon acute exposure to patients and sensitive groups, level at which the general public may also be slightly affected
Very bad	(- 500) A level at which emergency measures may be taken for patients and sensitive groups, or the general public may be adversely affected
