Analysis of changes in characteristics of arterial hypertension occupational risk in workers of nonferrous metallurgy

Abstract

The article covers changes in occupational cardiovascular risk for workers of nonferrous metallurgy. Findings are that exposure to noise up to 94 dB with length of service increases possible atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome. With 5 years of service, risk of the predicted conditions increases by 40.5%. When occupational exposure lasts over 5 years, risk of arterial hypertension increases. A group of workers without exposure to occupational factors appeared to have no connection between length of service and metabolic syndrome and arterial hypertension. Risk evolution modelling proved that risk of functional disorders in nonferrous metallurgy workers becomes unacceptable aft er 5 years of service (cardiovascular disorders are critical).
