Abstract

Pulmonary diseases caused by dust occupy a leading place in occupational morbidity structure. Those diseases inspire much attention due to their high prevalence, especially in ecologically hazardous regions where the workers are under "double exposure". Upper respiratory tract diseases serve as a trigger for all respiratory disorders in workers exposed to dust. Early diagnosis of respiratory disorders includes history, clinical data, X-ray examination and assessment of pulmonary ventilation and together with concurrent cardiovascular diagnosis is necessary for well-justified prophylaxis.
