[Occupational lung diseases in modern manufacturing and the ways to prevent them]
Abstract:
In up-to-date industrial conditions the new clinical forms of occupational pulmonary diseases occur more and more frequently in addition to the most prevalent dust pathology of the lungs. They occur in workers exposed to industrial aerosols of complex composition, including toxic substances and allergens along with fibrogenic dust. Exogenous allergic alveolitis, metalloconioses and occupational bronchitis should be distinguished among the diseases in consideration. The prophylaxis is to include measures aimed at the improvement of the working conditions, performance of preliminary and periodic medical examinations, early specialized employment and clinical examination of the patients.
