OBJECTIVE
To quantify the magnitude and patterns of occupational disease in Connecticut.
METHODS
Collecting and standardizing data on occupational diseases from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Survey, workers' compensation reports, and physician reports for the 2001 calendar year, and using capture-recapture analysis to estimate unreported cases.
RESULTS
The rate of occupational illnesses dropped to 35.1 cases per 10,000 workers in 2001 (from 6,396 cases reported in 2000 to 5,514 in 2001). Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) accounted for more than half of the cases. There was a low proportion of cases that were reported to both workers compensation and the Department of Public Health, indicating widespread under-reporting of cases; it is estimated that there are actually over 30,000 cases of occupational disease each year.
CONCLUSIONS
Occupational disease is one of the highest incident conditions of any type of medical condition, and there is a high level of under-reporting.
目的
量化康涅狄格州职业病的规模和模式。
方法
收集并标准化来自劳工统计局调查、工伤赔偿报告以及2001日历年医生报告中的职业病数据，并使用捕获-再捕获分析来估计未报告的病例。
结果
2001年职业病发病率降至每10000名工人35.1例（从2000年报告的6396例降至2001年的5514例）。肌肉骨骼疾病（MSD）占病例的一半以上。向工伤赔偿部门和公共卫生部报告的病例比例较低，表明病例普遍报告不足；估计每年实际有超过30000例职业病病例。
结论
职业病是任何类型医疗状况中发病率最高的情况之一，且报告不足的情况严重。
