OBJECTIVE
To profile chronic health conditions of an injured worker sample before and after workplace injury and compare injured workers to a matched community sample.
METHODS
Logistic regression analyses compared risk of certain chronic health conditions for permanently disabled injured workers in the pre- and post-injury periods to comparator subsamples from the Canadian Community Health Surveys 2003 and 2009/2010.
RESULTS
There were notable health differences between the injured worker and comparator samples for the post-injury period. Injured men and women were more likely to report arthritis, hypertension, ulcers, depression, and back problems than the comparator sample. Injured women were also more likely to report migraine headaches and asthma.
CONCLUSIONS
The observed differences suggest that permanently impaired injured workers experience more rapidly accelerated health declines than other aging workers, and this outcome is gendered.
目的
描述工伤工人样本在工伤前后的慢性健康状况，并将工伤工人与匹配的社区样本进行比较。
方法
采用逻辑回归分析，将2003年和2009/2010年加拿大社区健康调查中永久残疾工伤工人在受伤前和受伤后的某些慢性健康状况风险与对照子样本进行比较。
结果
在受伤后阶段，工伤工人样本与对照样本之间存在显著的健康差异。与对照样本相比，受伤的男性和女性更有可能报告患有关节炎、高血压、溃疡、抑郁症和背部问题。受伤女性也更有可能报告偏头痛和哮喘。
结论
观察到的差异表明，永久性受损的工伤工人比其他老龄工人的健康衰退加速得更快，而且这一结果存在性别差异。
