This study was carried out in two departments of Champagne-Ardenne. The aim was to assess the level of retrieval in patient population suffering from pneumoconiosis who were hospitalised with this disorder, compared to another population who had contracted the same disease in the working environment and were known to the local social security benefit office in the North East (CRAMNE). A list of 77 names of hospitalised patients had been obtained following requests for mineralogical analysis addressed to a specialised national laboratory. A second list of 59 names of patients who were receiving compensation for pneumoconiosis was provided by CRAMNE. Five subjects were common to both populations. The discordance between the two was partly explained by the non-recognition of the system of compensation for indemnifiable occupational disease. The recruitment of hospitalised patients leads to a bias which influences the distribution of pneumoconiosis patients. Subjects presenting with the most consistent abnormalities in pulmonary function did not all figure amongst the notified cases.
本研究在香槟-阿登大区的两个部门开展。目的是评估因尘肺病住院的患者群体的检索水平，并与在工作环境中患同样疾病且被东北部当地社会保障福利办公室（CRAMNE）知晓的另一群体进行比较。应向一家专业国家实验室提出的矿物学分析请求，获取了一份77名住院患者的名单。CRAMNE提供了第二份名单，列出了59名正在领取尘肺病赔偿的患者。两个群体中有5名受试者相同。两者之间的不一致部分是由于对可赔偿职业病赔偿制度的不认可。住院患者的招募导致了一种偏差，影响了尘肺病患者的分布。肺功能异常最一致的受试者并非都在通报病例之中。
