CURRENT ISSUES OF SAFETY AND HEALTH OF MEDICAL WORKERS AT THE PRESENT STAGE |
| Kazakh National Medical University named after S.D. Asfendiyarov, Almaty, Kazakhstan |
In recent decades, the nature of the doctor’s have been great changes. The amount of harmful and dangerous production factors due to a new health-care facilities (X-ray machines, electronic, electromedical, laser, ultrasound equipment and installation over frequency settings, medical hyperbaric chambers) and a large number of drugs that can cause contact dermatitis, inhalation poison, radioactive substances etc. And finally, dramatically changed the incidence of infectious diseases easily transmitted from patient to doctor.
This HIV infection, tuberculosis, hepatitis B and C and some other diseases, called extremely dangerous infections.
Retain their traditional importance of hygiene factors unfavorable microclimatic conditions (temperature, humidity and air velocity). Especially frequently in adverse weather conditions are complaining surgery and dentistry, whose work involves physical effort for a long time and therefore there is always the threat of overheating of the body.
In the procedural manipulation and dental offices are not on the agenda of contact with chemicals that cause allergic reactions.
In the absence of the current system of state social protection of doctors and lack of attention to the problems of poor quality of life of doctors, the medical profession has ceased to be a prestigious.
It is no secret to low salaries of health workers. However, their work belongs among the most complex and critical human activities. It is characterized by significant intellectual stress, and in some cases requires great physical effort, endurance, attention, and high ability to work in extreme conditions.
Given the wide spectrum of professional factors affecting health care workers, it seems urgent problem of occupational morbidity of this population, and in recent years, it has a tendency to increase. Leading factor in the production environment, giving rise to occupational diseases in health care workers are the biological factor, the proportion of which is an average of 73%, medication-16%, chemicals-11%.
The structure of occupational diseases, health workers predominate such nosological forms, such as pulmonary tuberculosis, 51%, hepatitis B 16%, an allergy drug medication -8%, bronchial asthma - 8%, eczema and dermatitis - 4%, other-13 %.
Should be specially emphasized that a large proportion of occupational diseases accounted for nurses, and they tend to occur in workers with less than 5 years.
Chronic stress in large measure responsible for the decline in life expectancy and higher morbidity among health care workers, compared with other professions.
