煤炭在韩国一直被广泛地应用于家庭和工业中,因此,煤矿一直是尘肺的主要源地。目前,煤矿的预计患病率或单纯性尘肺在采煤工中达到14.5％,掘进工达24.3％。在处理职业性疾患工作中,控制尘肺一直是一个严重的问题。尘肺诊断的必要条件是接触煤尘史和胸片上某些相关的特征性异常改变。尘肺导致的呼吸功能的损害则由肺功能检测作出评价。因为呼吸功能的损害并不总是同尘肺X线所见情况相符,故在确定尘肺患者的劳动补偿时,用肺功能测定来评价功能丧失的程
Coal has been widely used in homes and industries in Korea and as a result, coal mines have been the main source of pneumoconiosis. At present, the projected prevalence of coal mines or simple pneumoconiosis is 14.5% in coal mills and 24.3% in tunneling workers. Controlling pneumoconiosis has always been a serious problem in tackling occupational diseases. Necessary conditions for the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis are the history of exposure to dust and some relevant abnormal changes in the chest radiograph. The impairment of respiratory function caused by pneumoconiosis is evaluated by pulmonary function tests. Because respiratory impairment does not always match with pneumoconiosis, it is useful to assess the loss of function by measuring pulmonary function when determining the patient’s compensation for pneumoconiosis
