Background:

  • Occupational asthma is a significant cause of respiratory morbidity in industrial settings.
  • Exposure to specific dusts in the workplace can trigger asthma, even in individuals without prior respiratory conditions.
  • Diagnosing occupational asthma often requires a combination of clinical history, objective lung function tests, and specific challenge tests.
