Main objectives and achievements: This investigation
describes frequency, consequences and problems
about admission, related on workers that have suffered
occupational accidents related at hospital wards in
Health Secretary Hospitals of Distrito Federal.
Method: We checked 100 files out from the records of Health Secretary Hospitals, the characteristics of the
studied cases were determined because of activity and other occupational labors, we could identify the kind of
risk that were involved into frequency of occupational accidents, the danger and seriousness, as well as the days
workers stayed at hospital, treatment s and side effects. We performed univariated and bivariated statistical
analyses from the main characteristics studied. Also we created important groups in danger order to analyze
the relation between this characteristic and age, sex, occupational labor and informal or formal work.
Results: The age of the workers varied between 7 and
72 years, with an average of 29 years. The 75% of the
studied cases were younger than 40 years, 6% were
between 40 and 72 and the 19% were underage. Also,
the majority of population was men, because only 7
workers were women.
The 38% workers belonged to informal work
and the other 62% were in the formal one, but most of
the people, regardless they were contracted, didn't have
social security because only 7 of them mentioned it.
All those data points show us that the seriousness
of occupational accidents is high, because the media was
exceeded further more than light or sever wounded. The
average of stayed days at hospital was 9.7 per worker
so, but the other 75% stayed more than 4. |
