Modulation Du Gain Auditif Central Dans Une Perspective De Réadaptation Des Travailleurs Souffrant D’Acouphènes, Sylvie Hébert, Philippe Fournier, Marc Schönwiesner
Rapports de recherche scientifique
L’acouphène est un son perçu sans qu’il soit provoqué par une source sonore externe. Cette sensation auditive anormale, par exemple des bourdonnements, des tintements ou des sifflements, affecte une seule ou les deux oreilles. Elle peut grandement détériorer la qualité de vie et l’aptitude au travail d’une partie importante des personnes ayant une perte auditive. Dans les deux études décrites dans ce rapport, le modèle récent appelé gain auditif central a été utilisé pour intégrer les données normales et pathologiques dans un même cadre conceptuel. En bref, le « gain auditif central » est un mécanisme normal postulé pour expliquer …

L’économie du Canada, comme celle de bien d’autres pays industrialisés, bénéficie du développement des nanotechnologies dont le fort potentiel peut être exploité dans plusieurs secteurs industriels. Un nombre croissant d’entreprises québécoises de production de nanoparticules (NP) est d’ailleurs déjà implanté et tout porte à croire que d’autres emboîteront le pas dans les années à venir. Ce faisant, non seulement le nombre de travailleurs œuvrant dans la fabrication et la synthèse des NP augmentera sensiblement, mais également le nombre de ceux qui seront appelés à en manipuler et à en transformer dans les domaines des nanotechnologies en général. Une des conséquences …

Six-Year Experience Of Influenza Vaccination As A Condition Of Employment For A Large Regional Health Care System, John R. Brill, Mark Hermanoff, Angela Tonozzi, Mary Jo Capodice, Jennifer Farrar, Zarina Dawoodbhai
Journal of Patient-Centered Research and Reviews
Background: Influenza remains a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality in the United States. Health care workers (HCW) can be both victims and vectors of influenza. Influenza vaccination of HCW is protective for both caregivers and patients, but voluntary programs generally fail to achieve rates recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Despite a complex, multifaceted influenza program initiated in 1996 that included significant education and promotion as well as free on-site vaccination, annual Aurora Health Care caregiver immunization rates remained in the mid-70s until adoption of a “condition of employment” strategy in 2011.
Purpose: Discuss the annual …

Predicting Hand Surface Area From A Two-Dimensional Hand Tracing, Myles O'Mara
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Recent occupational health studies have focused on dermal exposure at the hands, but have been unable to accurately express dose without knowing the HSA. There is no standard method to calculate HSA, though some researchers have derived HSA formulas based on dimensions from a Taiwanese population. This research paper describes a shortcut method to estimate the hand surface area (HSA) of a human hand from a two-dimensional hand tracing, and repeated a Taiwanese HSA study in order to explore the viability of its HSA formula in an American university population. A sample of nine adult men and nine adult women, …

La pose de fermes de toit présente particulièrement des risques et des dangers de chute pour les travailleurs de la construction parce qu’elle se fait en hauteur et dans des conditions difficiles. Les travailleurs, en équilibre précaire sur la charpente, risquent de perdre l’équilibre et/ou de chuter lors de la pose des fermes. Pour protéger ses travailleurs contre les chutes de hauteur lors de la pose de fermes, de contreplaqués et de bardeaux, un entrepreneur de construction domiciliaire a récemment développé un système de corde d’assurance horizontale (SCAH) constitué de deux potelets en aluminium et d’un câble en acier en …

Au Québec, la Loi sur les accidents du travail et des maladies professionnelles (LATMP) établit que tout travailleur ayant subi une lésion professionnelle qui porte atteinte à son intégrité physique ou psychique a droit à la réadaptation que requiert son état en vue de sa réinsertion sociale et professionnelle. La LATMP prévoit aussi un droit de retour au travail lorsque le travailleur redevient capable d’exercer son métier. Les organisations et les travailleurs sont donc directement concernés par la mise en place de solutions de retour au travail (RaT) adéquates, durables et efficaces. Alors que la littérature récente …

Analyzing Indoor And Outdoor Heat Index Measurements In Kitchens, Allison Welch
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Occupationally induced heat-related illnesses (HRI) can play a huge part in the lives of employees working within outdoor kitchens. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health [NIOSH] (2016), “exposure to heat can result in injuries, disease, reduced productivity and death”. When working in outdoor environments, it is important to limit exposure time of direct sun or heat as well as to stay properly hydrated. One way to ensure limited occupational heat exposure is by measuring the Heat Index of the worker's environmental conditions.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether there was a difference between …

The question of whether the job market can support future graduates of environmental health programs remains an important and difficult question for environmental health programs, current and prospective students, parents, and other stakeholders. Our previous report using 2014 data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics demonstrated anticipated growth and higher than average pay in the profession through at least 2022 for baccalaureate degree holders (Marion & Sinde, 2015). Growth in the profession does not necessarily translate into job availability if the market is saturated with job candidates. While university programs produce graduates, local health departments (LHDs) have suffered tremendous …
