[Characteristics of work-loss in diseases of the peripheral nervous system].
Diseases of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) rank fourth among all causes of temporal loss of working ability and first in the structure of neurological morbidity causing temporal disability. Statistical service based on the principles of the International Classification of Diseases, Injuries and Causes of Death does not provide the neurologic service with data about loss of the working time due to PNS diseases. In the comprehensive work on the improvement of neurologic care of patients with PNS diseases conducted in Byelorussia an important place has been recently given to the systematic monitoring of the temporal disability rate which decreased by 28.3% over a period of 3 years (1983-1985).
