This document discusses occupational respiratory diseases. It begins by describing the anatomy and functions of the respiratory system and how it can be impacted by external contaminants in the workplace. It then categorizes different types of occupational respiratory diseases including acute and chronic diseases that can affect the upper and lower airways, lung parenchyma, and pleura. Specific examples of causative agents and pathophysiological effects are provided for different disease categories like asthma, bronchitis, pneumoconiosis and lung cancer. Diagnostic tools like patient history, physical exams, imaging and pulmonary function tests are also outlined.
Uma pessoa passa maior parte da sua vida em um ambiente de trabalho, o que significa que é necessário ter boas condições físicas e mentais neste local, para garantir uma boa qualidade de vida entre os colaboradores, esse texto é apenas um breve ensaio sobre as Doenças ocupacionais, como estamos expostos a ela dia a dia em nossas atividades laborais e como podemos evita-las.

A dermatose ocupacional é uma doença da pele de trabalhadores que em sua jornada de trabalho estão em contato com agentes e produtos físicos e químicos que causam alergia e irritação. A melhor maneira de prevenção dessa doença é através do uso de luvas que impeçam o contato agressivo com esses agentes.As dermatoses ocupacionais ou termatites de contato são visíveis em locais de trabalho que usam solvente, óleos minerais, cimento, cal e outros... A pele está sujeita a uma grande quantidade de doenças como resultado da falta de asseio agravada por factores ligados à idade, ao sexo, ambiente de moradia, trabalho e transporte, e outras condições. Esses males, que constituem o grupo das dermatoses, são principalmente as piodermites, que são infecções inflamatórias directamente provocadas por bactérias nas diversas camadas da pele, além de certas verminoses e micoses. Resultam de contágio e são transmissíveis por contacto, sendo mais frequentemente incidentes durante a época mais quente e húmida do ano.

A Síndrome Coronariana Aguda (SCA) é um termo utilizado para descrever uma série de doenças resultantes da redução do fluxo sanguíneo para o músculo cardíaco, entre elas o infarto agudo do miocárdio em progressão ou a ameaça iminente do infarto (angina instável). A SCA é a principal causa de hospitalização no mundo ocidental. As doenças cardiovasculares são as que mais causam mortes em países industrializados, sendo as doenças coronarianas as mais prevalentes são responsáveis por altas taxas de mortalidade e morbidade.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

4. Rhinitis and laryngitis
Large particles are deposited in the nose, pharynx, and larynx.
More soluble gases (e.g., sulfur dioxide) are absorbed by upper
respiratory tract mucous membranes, causing edema and
mucus hypersecretion.
Tracheitis, bronchitis, and bronchiolitis
Large particles (more than 10 µm in diameter) are deposited
and then cleared by cilia. Small particles and fine fibers are
deposited in bronchioles and bifurcations of alveolar ducts. Less
soluble gases penetrate to deeper,
small airways.
Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Allergens and irritants are deposited in large airways by turbulent flow,
causing chronic inflammatory changes.
Cancer
Carcinogens (asbestos and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons)
come into contact with bronchial epithelial cells, causing
mutations in proto-oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes.
More than one such contact results in malignant transformation.
Interstitial disease
Small particles (less than 10 µm in diameter) and fibers are
deposited in terminal bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli.
Penetration to the interstitium results in fibrosis and the
formation of granulomas.

21. ASMA OCUPACIONAL
ASMA DOS PADEIROS: RAMAZZINI 1700
TOSSE DO WORLD TRADE CENTER
Bombeiros que estiveram expostos a poeiras
inorgânicas, produtos da pirólise e outras
partículas respiráveis, durante o ataque
terrorista ao WTC, cerca de ¼ destes bombeiros
(que tiveram altos níveis de exposição)
desenvolveram hiperresponsividade aguda
22. CONCEITO
Asma ocupacional é uma limitação
ao fluxo aéreo variável e
hiperresponsividade da via aérea
devido a exposição a um agente
específico ou a condições
particulares no ambiente de
trabalho, e, não a estímulos
encontrados fora do local de
trabalho
23. Espirometria
Espirômetro mede a
quantidade e a velocidade
do ar que você expira
Os testes de função
pulmonar podem mostrar
se suas vias aéreas estão
+ abertas ou + fechadas.
Mostra também se certos
medicamentos melhoram
sua asma
24. Pico de Fluxo
Pico de fluxo é um
método portátil,
simples, prático de
avaliar o grau de
obstrução brônquica

Figure 2. Rates of Peak Expirator Flow in a 42-year-old Man with Asthma and Work-Related Symptons.
The patient used a portable peak expiratory flowmetr and a daily calendar. The early-morning peak
flows showed the diurnal morning dip usually seen with asthma, The peak flow values were consitently
lower when the patient was at work than when he was at home, a finding that confirmed that the asthma
was related to work.
