Occupational prognosis

Measures of the public health importance of a disease include the absolute number of cases, the incidence rate, the prevalence (rate), the economic impact of the disease, and the prognosis and preventability of the disease.65 Contact dermatitis is the most common occupational and environmental skin disease. Epidemiologic data show that contact dermatitis comprises 90 to 95% of all occupational skin diseases. [Pg.566]

In contrast to these findings Shah et al. (1996) reported that HE in metalworkers carries a poor prognosis, with most workers remaining symptomatic even if they no longer had occupational exposure to metals or oils. Of 51 patients, 82% still had HE. [Pg.13]

Information on exposure is not only essential for adopting appropriate preventive measures in individual cases and, therefore, improving the prognosis of dermatitis patients, but also for implementing appropriate techniques of primary prevention and precluding new cases of sensitization. There are many sources and data systems available that can provide both workers and physicians with the necessary information to identify sources of exposure not only in occupational environments but also in products for household or personal use (Table 2). Due to the continuous introduction of new industrial chemicals, lists of substances must be permanently updated. [Pg.346]

This chapter reviews reports on the prognosis of occupational contact dermatitis. Factors that may affect the prognosis of occupational contact dermatitis include atopy, job change, the age of the patient, the nature of irritants and allergens, and the nature of the occupation. [Pg.444]
