Discussion on diagnosis of an occupational acute moderate toxic encephalopathy case

  • Objective To discuss diagnosis of occupational acute toxic encephalopathy and improve the diagnosis level of occupational disease.

    Methods Being lack of occupational hazard detection and occupational health surveillance data, three certified occupational diseases diagnosis physicians made a conclusive diagnosis through analyzing the worker's clinical manifestations, on-site occupational hygiene investigation results, and relevant literatures.

    Results Two physicians diagnosed the worker with occupational acute moderate toxic encephalopathy, while the third one ruled out occupational chemical poisoning. According to the consensus of more than half of the diagnosis physicians, a conclusive diagnosis of occupational acute moderate toxic encephalopathy was determined.

    Conclusion In the absence of occupational hazard detection and occupational health surveillance data, a conclusive diagnosis could be made after combining relevant national occupational disease diagnosis standards, patient's clinical manifestations, occupational hygiene investigation results at workplace, and related literatures.
