Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a method to evaluate risk factors of occupational bronchial asthma (OBA) in nurses.
Methods. A new method to predict occurrence of OBA in nurses has been proposed. This method used the approximation and optimization approach and was based on proceeding medical data using scheduled serial numerical experiments for 287 sanitary and technical characteristics of nurse working conditions.
Results. According to the results, a group of healthcare providers with the highest incidence of occupational allergic diseases was selected. This group included 222 nurses. A number of OBA risk factors were found including antibiotics, drugs, vaccines, detergents, antiseptics (both with and without chlorine), mold, and paper dust.
Conclusion. The approximation and optimization approach for evaluation occupational risk factors in nurses could predict OBA occurrence. This is important for development preventing measures. This study supposed that adherence to occupational safety rules could decrease the risk of OBA.
