Occupational health and occupational hazards by Dr. Sonam AggarwalDr. Sonam Aggarwal
• "Occupational health should aim at the promotion and maintenance of the highest degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all occupations;
• the prevention among workers of departures from health caused by their working conditions;
• the protection of workers in their employment from risks resulting from factors adverse to health;
• the placing and maintenance of the worker in an occupational environment adapted to his physiological and psychological equipment, and,
• to summarize, the adaptation of work to man and of each man to his job.”
The Joint ILO/WHO Committee on Occupational Health,1995
An occupational hazard is a hazard experienced in the workplace. Occupational hazards can encompass many types of hazards, including chemical hazards, biological hazards (biohazards), psychosocial hazards, and physical hazards. In the United States, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) conduct workplace investigations and research addressing workplace health and safety hazards resulting in guidelines. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) establishes enforceable standards to prevent workplace injuries and illnesses.
Injury prevention is an effort to prevent or reduce the severity of bodily injuries caused by external mechanisms, such as accidents, before they occur. ... Researchers use the term "unintentional injury" to refer to injuries that are non volitional but preventable.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
2. INTRODUCTION
• Occupational health is the health science which is related to human work,
work-place and work environment.
• Occupational health is entirely preventive medicine.
• The main objectives of occupational health is safety of workers in all
occupations from injuries and diseases and improve their health status.
• Occupational health science gives priority to the welfare of workers
Terminology:
• Occupational health
refers to the potential risks to health and safety for those who work
outside the home
• Hazard
something that can cause harm if not controlled.
3. Conti.
• Occupational disease
Disease directly caused by a person‟s occupation.
DEFINITION OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH:
“Occupational health is the promotion & maintenance of the highest
degree of physical, mental & social wellbeing of the workers in all
occupations”
According to joint committee of WHO and ILO(1950), Occupational
health in all occupations should be:
i) care and improve the physical, mental and social well-being of workers
ii) Prevent hindrances to health including those which occur due to work place.
4. Conti.
iii) Protect the workers engaged in occupation
iv) Provide them a healthy environment
Ergonomics or human engineering:
• It is derived from Greek term-
a. Ergon means „work‟
b. Nomos means „law‟
• It simply means-
• ‘ fitting the job to the worker
5. Conti.
• Ergonomics is a well established and important aspects of occupational
health.
• The science of ergonomics deals with layout design of work places, work
environment, methods of work, designing equipment's, machines etc. with
an aim to prevent and control accidents, disabilities etc. and to improve
efficiency and well-being of workers.
• The application of science of ergonomics resulted in improvements in
working condition by detecting existing's health hazards and designing the
work place and activities according to workers, physical and psychological
abilities and requirements.
6. Conti.
Aims and objectives of occupational services
• The maintenance and promotion of workers‟ health and working capacity
• The improvement of working environment and work to become conducive
to safety and health
• Development of work organizations and working cultures in a direction
which supports health and safety at work and in doing so also promotes a
positive social climate and smooth operation and may enhance productivity
of the undertakings.

Measures to prevent occupational Diseases:
The various measures to prevent occupational diseases are classified into-
Medical
Engineering
Legislative
Medical Measures
Pre-placement examination:
• This refers to the medical examination carried out to placement in order to
place right man in right in job.
• Preplacement examination of employees will function as yardstick to make
future comparisons.
43. Conti.
Periodical Examination:
• Periodical examination will help in diagnosing the disease since
occupational disease take very slow process of development.
• Usually, the workers are examined once in a year, again it also depends
upon the kind of occupational exposure. Like as lead, toxic dyes needs
monthly examination.
Medical Health care services:
• In India, Employees State Insurance (ESI)scheme provides medical
services to the employee and his family, prompt first aid & vaccination
services rendered to protect the worker and the family
Visit to working Environment:
