THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE WORKERS OF THE ELECTROLYSIS ALUMINIUM PRODUCTION WITH OCCUPATIONAL BRONCHO-PULMONARY PATHOLOGY

The impact of industrial aerosols (fluoride, aluminum oxide dust, coal tar distillates, aromatic and heterocyclic compounds) causes development of broncho-pulmonary pathology in professional workers. The aim of the work was to study the basic indicators of the quality of life and degree of influence...

The aim of the work was to study the basic indicators of the quality of life and degree of influence of broncho-pulmonary pathology on the health status of patients with diagnosed occupational disease of respiratory system. 38 former employees of the basic professions of electrolysis aluminum production were divided into 2 groups.
