Abstract

OBJECTIVE

To investigate relative frequency and features of diisocyanate (ISO) and non-diisocyanate (N-ISO) allowed occupational asthma (OA) claims in Ontario, Canada, during a 5-year period (1998 to 2002).

METHODS

Records were abstracted from the Ontario Workplace Safety and Insurance Board using methodology similar to our previous investigation that had identified 30 ISO and 30 N-ISO claims/yr during 1980 to 1993.

RESULTS

There were 99 OA claims: 37 ISO (7.4 claims/yr) and 62 N-ISO (12.4 claims/yr). The ISO group had more males (86% vs 69%, p = 0.01), but there were no other significant differences. The commonest professions were spray painters (41%) and production workers (38%) in the ISO group and production workers (49%) and health care workers (8%) in the N-ISO group.

CONCLUSIONS

ISO and N-ISO claims declined from the previous period, especially for ISO, perhaps because of effective surveillance programs.

摘要

目的

调查在加拿大安大略省的五年期间（1998 年至 2002 年），允许职业性哮喘（OA）的二异氰酸酯（ISO）和非二异氰酸酯（N-ISO）的相对频率和特征。

方法

使用与我们之前的调查类似的方法，从安大略省工作场所安全和保险委员会的记录中提取了记录，该调查在 1980 年至 1993 年期间确定了每年有 30 例 ISO 和 30 例 N-ISO 索赔。

结果

共有 99 例 OA 索赔：37 例 ISO（7.4 例/年）和 62 例 N-ISO（12.4 例/年）。ISO 组中的男性更多（86％对 69％，p = 0.01），但没有其他明显差异。最常见的职业是 ISO 组中的喷涂工（41％）和生产工人（38％）以及 N-ISO 组中的生产工人（49％）和保健工作者（8％）。
