    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Occupational Health

    Context:

    • Digestive system diseases represent a significant cause of work disability.
    • These conditions account for substantial workdays lost and hospital dismissals among the working population.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the impact of digestive system diseases on work capacity.
    • To identify key diagnoses contributing to inability to work.

    Summary:

    • Digestive diseases lead to 11.7% of work inability cases, 11.3% of lost workdays, and 13.6% of hospital dismissals.
    • Seven primary diagnoses, including gastritis, duodenitis, cholelithiasis, and appendicitis, account for 78% of work inability days.
    • Endoscopic diagnostics and improved treatment organization, including interdisciplinary collaboration, are crucial for addressing this issue.

    Impact:

    • Highlights the substantial burden of gastroenterological diseases on workforce productivity.
    • Underscores the need for enhanced diagnostic tools and coordinated care pathways to mitigate work disability.
