Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of pneumoconiosis in Hunan Province.Methods:In November 2018, we collected the type of work, pneumoconiosis type, pneumoconiosis stage, length of service, age of onset and complications of pneumoconiosis cases diagnosed by Hunan occupational disease prevention and control hospital from January 2017 to October 2018. A total of 3 325 cases of pneumoconiosis were collected, including 651 cases (19.58%) of occupational pneumoconiosis and 2674 cases (80.42%) of clinically diagnosed pneumoconiosis. The measurement data were expressed by ± s. The comparison between groups was performed by independent sample t test and one-way ANOVA. Results:The age of 651 patients with occupational pneumoconiosis was 35.59-85.15 years old, the average age of onset was (54.27±8.29) years, and the average exposure to dust was (14.74±8.60) years. 2 674 cases of clinically diagnosed pneumoconiosis were 26.85~87.02 years old. The average age of onset was (55.26±7.38) years, and the average exposure time was (18.83±9.35) years. Compared with silicosis patients, coal workers' pneumoconiosis patients had longer exposure time, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) , and the difference was statistically significant ( F=3.678, P<0.05) . There were no complications in 651 cases of occupational pneumoconiosis. Among 2 674 cases of clinically diagnosed pneumoconiosis, 710 cases (26.55%) had complications. Conclusion:Further attention should be paid to the clinical diagnosis of pneumoconiosis in Hunan Province.
