Abstract:
Purpose. This article attempts to elucidate the nature of chemicals causing major and minor skin burns, and their associated characterization across different industries, using Fujian provincial hospitals\' admission and outpatient department records. Materials and methods. Data were collected from the provincial hospitals of Fujian through a questionnaire, sent via email, from June 1, 2017 to November 30, 2017. The collected responses were statistically analyzed using SPSS version 19 through the interquartile range, median, Mann-Whitney U test and Fisher\'s exact test with two-tailed significance. Results and conclusions. The results of 306 collected responses reveal that the majority of skin burn cases are due to a lack of technical education and professional training among workers handling chemicals. This study suggests that management\'s effective supervision and governmental regulations may help to prevent chemical skin burns at work, and can further be controlled by hiring professional workers alongside providing training to them in chemical handling as well as using protective equipment and developing appropriate management policies to improve victims\' well-being and quality of life. Findings will help workers, doctors, hospitals, industries, government and other stakeholders to understand and control chemical hazards on site to minimize the risks of chemical skin burn incidents.
摘要:
目的。本文试图阐明引起主要和次要皮肤烧伤的化学物质的性质,以及它们在不同行业中的相关特征,使用福建省省级医院的入院记录和门诊部记录。材料和方法。通过问卷调查的方式从福建省省级医院收集数据,通过电子邮件发送,从2017年6月1日到2017年11月30日。使用SPSS第19版通过四分位数范围对收集的响应进行统计分析,中位数,具有双尾显著性的Mann-WhitneyU检验和Fisher精确检验。结果和结论。收集的306份回复的结果显示,大多数皮肤烧伤病例是由于处理化学品的工人缺乏技术教育和专业培训。这项研究表明,管理的有效监督和政府法规可能有助于防止工作中的化学皮肤灼伤,并且可以通过雇用专业工人以及向他们提供化学处理培训以及使用防护设备和制定适当的管理政策来改善受害者的福祉和生活质量来进一步控制。调查结果将帮助工人,医生,医院,工业,政府和其他利益相关者了解和控制现场化学危害,以最大程度地减少化学皮肤烧伤事件的风险。
