Investigative and test 588 workers of 9 stone exploit and process companies in Binh Dinh finding out and define 19 of them (occupy 3,23%) get silico-pneumocosiosis main 1/10p type. Most of those workers were young, seniority low (6-20 years). People who working less than 5 years haven’t silico-pneumocosiosis. They were given CT-2002 muffler which according to standard of technical target. Filter performance get 85-87% with output 30l/minute. When ventilate output increase to 95l/minute. Performance reduce to 44-46,9%

Technical Specifications for Occupational Health Surveillance (GBZ 188-2014) is an important basis for judging suspected occupational diseases and occupational contraindications. There are crossing over or overlap between occupational contraindications and diagnostic criteria of poisoning damage. Occupational contraindications have different meanings with the degree and range of common diseases or symptoms and the frequency of physical examination during employment conflicts with the current standard. Based on the practice of occupational health examination in a large population, the present study analyzed relevant articles and put forward some suggestions for revision, in combination with clinical medicine, occupational health standards, and diagnostic standards of occupational diseases. The modification could provide a reference for the revision of Technical Specifications for Occupational Health Surveillance and the practice of occupational health examination.

This study describes the laboratory program in Occupational Medicine and its improvement by the medical student's evaluation and need survey at the Department of Preventive Medicine, College of Medicine, Ewha Womans University. In November 1995, the questionnaires consisted with 2 groups and 10 items about each of 5 subjects were administered to 85 medical students. The contents of 10 items were composed of evaluation of method, contents, operation method, space, tools and handouts, time and their satisfaction of the laboratory work. The program was designed in the aspect of small group discussion followed by presentation of laboratory their results. Some important outcome of their evaluation about laboratory works were as follows; 1) Most of the students felt that the laboratory work was progressed by the proposal(76.0%) and the appropriate handout(63.0%) and recent contents(73.5%). And the feedback of report and homework was appropriate(87.3%). 2) They wanted to do small group discussion about some subject, especially case problem solving, determination of health examination and to present their results. 3) They satisfied with the content of experiment especially case problem solving and observation of the video(related to occupational accident and disease) and the method of presented and small group discussion. 4) But they complained the excessive amount of laboratory hours and time for which their desire directed Foward a proper amount for the time. A plan to induce and control the small group discussion by the subjects and self-learning program is made in next semester.
