Atemwegs- und Lungenerkrankungen in der Europäischen Landwirtschaft

Abstract: Farming is still one of the most important economic sectors in the world. At the same time, a high prevalence of respiratory diseases in farmers is well known. Among these, allergic and non-allergic asthma, chronic bronchitis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis and organic dust toxic syndrome (ODTS) are of uppermost importance. Because of the large variety of agriculture across Europe exposure conditions and risk factors for airway diseases may vary largely. While exposure to organic dusts and irritants are most imp… Show more

“…Bioaerosol measurements are carried out at livestock farms and in the ambient air to assess health risks as well as environmental aspects. Occupational medical examinations have shown that people who are exposed to bioaerosols, such as bacteria, fungi and endotoxins, are more likely to suffer from health problems, respiratory diseases, infections or allergies (Herr et al 1999;Radon and Nowak 2003). It is important to keep the emissions in the barn as low as possible in order to protect the health of farmers and animals and comply with animal welfare directives (VDI 4250 Part 1 2014).…”

“…(HURLEY et al, 2000;ALVANJA et al, 1996;KIDD et al, 1996;RIEGER, 2001;WIRTHS, 1956). Daneben sind Atemwegserkrankungen als Berufskrankheit in der Landwirtschaft beschrieben (RADON et al, 2003). Ferner stellen lärmbedingte Gehörschäden im landwirtschaftlichen Arbeitsumfeld ein Risiko dar (BATEL, 1975).…”
