Medical Surveillance

Medical surveillance emerged as one of the first resources to ensure the health of workers, given the lack of knowledge about the health effects that could be generated by work to exposure of ENM; For this reason, the implementation of medical surveillance programs was considered, which despite focusing on the effects of ENM on human health, have not been able to characterize any disease related to this risk factor.

The bad news is that due to the lack of scientific evidence, it is not possible to recommend medical surveillance programs very different from pre-existing medical surveillance programs, however an accepted variant could be a medical test based on exposure to an ENM in which a chemical with a previously recognised potential toxicity is recognised. The establishment of a medical surveillance programme in a working group exposed to ENM is a vital tool for the timely detection of harmful effects on the health of workers.

Medical surveillance, as a tool used to monitor and monitor working conditions on the health of the working population, collects specific data for analysis and interpretation to contribute to medical evaluation as part of health programs. The main difficulties faced by medical surveillance are; confrontation in the face of an emerging risk, there is very little scientific evidence and very little regulation in this area. Finally, in conclusion, NIOSH concludes that there is no medical or scientific evidence to recommend specific medical examinations for workers exposed to nanoparticles.
