NEW DATA ON THE ROLE OF PROHYPERTENSIVE INDUSTRIAL FACTORS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Abstract

A number of industrial factors increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, especially arterial hypertension. The first reason for this is the emergence of a number of stressors in the workplace. Arterial hypertension and coronary heart disease are more likely to be caused by high psychoemotional factors, especially in truck and long-distance truck drivers, as well as bus drivers. Noise in the workplace as a physical factor is very important in the development of arterial hypertension. One of the prohypertensive factors in the workplace is both local and general vibration.
Arterial hypertension was 32% in patients with vibration disease and only 17.4% in the control group. In addition, radiation and high temperatures in the workplace increase the likelihood of developing hypertension. In addition, arterial hypertension is more common in tram drivers and pilots than in other professions. An increase in atmospheric pressure, as a physical factor, causes an increase in blood pressure in workers. Thus, a number of industrial factors cause arterial hypertension, and they can be considered prohypertensive factors.
