Abstract:
Objective:To explore the health status of the workers who were leaving their posts from small-scaled coal mines, and to provide evidence for coal workers’ pneumoconiosis prevention and safeguard measures.
Methods:In 2017, 1008 workers from the coal mine in a town were monitored for occupational health, and the effects of working type, age were analyzed and evaluated.
Results:The health monitoring of the mine workers in this town showed high rate of the abnormal detection of respiratory system and cardiovascular system, the incidence rate of pneumoconiosis was up to 34.82%. The incidence of pneumoconiosis in different types of work was not the same (P<0.05) , and the incidence of tunneling workers' pneumoconiosis was the highest. Pneumoconiosis detection rate increased with age (P<0.05) . The difference of pneumoconiosis detection rate among workers of different ages was statistically significant (P<0.05) , among which the pneumoconiosis detection rate was the highest in the group of 40 years old.
Conclusion:The pneumoconiosis is serious in small coal mines in this town. It should strengthen the prevention of diseases such as respiratory system and cardiovascular system of coal mine workers, and pay attention to their health management and prolong the life of patients with pneumoconiosis.
