title: [Socio-hygienic aspects of total morbidity among chemical industry workers].
abstract: As a result of multipurpose 6-year observation for permanent populations of chemical industry workers under conditions of Eastern Siberia, "comprehensive" morbidity has been studied and intensive ratios have been derived adjusted for age, sex, occupation, socio-hygienic factors and conditions. The levels of "comprehensive" morbidity were rather high (1983 +/- 7.07 per 1000 workers). The morbidity pattern and conditions of its formation have been determined. Detection of diseases was largely due to routine medical examinations (up to 63.3% of new cases) particularly effective for recognition of neuropsychic disorders, diseases of the skin, nervous system and sense organs, chronic affections of the respiratory system. In the course of introducing insurance medicine and cost effectiveness, the role of dynamic observations, regular medical check-ups as the basis for planning health-promoting measures is to grow.
