Textbook of Occupational Medicine Practice

About this book

This book provides a link between occupational health and clinical practice. As such, the book is suitable for medical students, general practitioners and postgraduate students in occupational medicine. Other occupational health practitioners and occupational health nurses will also find this book useful.

The main approach of most chapters is to examine occupational health issues and concerns from the standpoint of clinical presentations of the different organ systems, e.g. respiratory disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, dermatological disorders. The book also contains chapters on screening and routine medical examinations, health promotion at the workplace, assessment of disability for compensation, medical planning and management of industrial disasters and the prevention of occupational diseases. Further, case studies have been incorporated in the chapters to make clear the relevant issues.

The contributors to the book are a mix of international and regional occupational health specialists and clinicians. This book will be a valuable starting point for the health professionals with an interest in occupational medicine as well as to those intending to specialize in occupational medicine.
