Abstract

A survey was conducted among teachers to explore 1) risk factors of voice disorders, 2) the number and nature of problems experienced, 3) the need for medical help, and 4) how occupational health care reacts to this need. Additionally, the knowledgeability of occupational health care physicians and the way treatment of voice disorders is currently organized was explored. Of the 181 teachers who responded, 42% reported voice symptoms occurring daily or weekly. Every tenth teacher also had vocal nodules, and 40% of those with recurring voice problems had been on sick-leave. The respondents suggested improvements in occupational health care: it should also cover prevention, waiting times need to be shortened and care chains established, and resources need to be allocated for voice therapy services.

摘要

对教师进行了一项调查，以探究：1）嗓音障碍的风险因素；2）所经历问题的数量和性质；3）对医疗帮助的需求；4）职业卫生保健对这一需求的反应。此外，还探究了职业卫生保健医生的知识水平以及目前嗓音障碍治疗的组织方式。在181名回复的教师中，42%报告每天或每周出现嗓音症状。每十位教师中就有一位有声带小结，且在那些反复出现嗓音问题的教师中，40%曾休过病假。受访者建议改善职业卫生保健：它还应涵盖预防，需要缩短等待时间并建立护理链，且需要为嗓音治疗服务分配资源。
