9/24/2010 Call received from a pest control operator. The caller explained that a now deceased coworker had worked as a PCO for this company for a 4 to 5 year period ending sometime in 2008. After the caller had heard that the former employee had died sometime in late August 2010 due to a aortic aneurism he became concerned that he may be at risk for health problems since he is using the same insecticide. He denies personally experiencing any adversity, nor was he able to describe any known instance of exposure in either himself or the coworker from 2 year sago. He has spoken with his personal MD who explained that the connection between the coworker dying from a aortic anuerism and his use of Tempo are completely unrelated. The caller has no knowledge or information regarding the medical care of the now deceased coworker. Unknown if he was hospitalized or treated by a physician. The caller was informed that the cardiovascular event reported in this case are not consistent with the known toxicology profile of Temp when it has been used in the manner described. The weight of medical and scientific data on cyfluthrin containing insecticides found in the peer-reviewed scientific literature or from post-marketing data does not support the notion that profound toxicity such as an aortic anuerism following routine insecticide use is biologically plausible.
