Occupational Epidemiology/Clinical data monitoring and occupational risk indicators

Study 1 Monitoring of clinical data

edit

The aim is to contribute to the prevention of occupational diseases among seafarers, fishermen and other professions. Method: registration of clinical data and work-anamnesis, from new health examinations prospectively. To be completed on the phone together with the patient. All answers are kept in Excel format with the ID and the answers can also be printed out in Pdf or paper. Summary data are analysed without names and with no personal identification, so that all information is kept strong confidential.

Objectives

edit
  1. To monitor trends of the clinical data and lab values from the routine health examinations BMI, pre-hypertension, pre-diabetes etc in the seafaring population
  2. To study which are the major etiological, predictive variables that can reduce the number of repatriations.

In case of illness, the seafarers are repatriated and very little is known how to reduce the number of these repatriations. The research question is to identify clinical indicators with high predictive value for +/- repatriation, including mental health problems.
