Project Abstract for Expanded Program in Chemical Exposure Surveillance In 2018, 2.1 million poisoning exposures were reported to US Poison Control Centers; 31,316 reports listed the reason for the call as occupational. Workplace injuries and illness caused by chemical exposures are preventable. Successful interventions to improve workplaces safety begin with having the data necessary to understand the magnitude of the problem. North Carolina uses a multipronged surveillance approach to respond to chemical releases and exposures, with an emphasis on monitoring and preventing occupational injuries. Three surveillance systems work together to monitor emergency chemical releases and exposures to two ubiquitous and harmful substances – carbon monoxide and pesticides. This data is leveraged to inform timely public health response and intervention for specific incidents. North Carolina is seeking expanded funding in surveillance of chemical exposures to: 1. Integrate chemical exposure surveillance, include acute pesticide poisonings chemical releases, and occupational carbon monoxide poisonings into a unified software platform for more effective response. 2. Increase capacity to conduct follow-back interviews and referrals for chemical exposures, including occupational carbon monoxide poisonings, pesticide poisonings. 3. Provide emergency response support and multidisciplinary occupational health consultations to protect public health and employees. 4. Maintain, develop and promote collaborative projects focused on emerging occupational health surveillance priorities with a committed network of in-state partners. 5. Work with out-of-state regional and national partners to design and promote best practices for occupational surveillance. Public health surveillance at the state levels has been greatly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our staff have been deployed to the response since January 2020, which has delayed several of our routine surveillance activities. However, the recognition that occupation impacts health has received more national attention and public awareness during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although the lack of industry, occupation, race, and ethnicity information in many data sources has limited our ability as public health professionals to adequately respond to the pandemic, we can build on the national recognition to innovate how we monitor and improve occupational health in this county.

化学品暴露监测扩展计划项目摘要 2018年，美国毒物控制中心报告了210万起中毒事件；31,316起 报告列出了电话的原因是职业原因。由以下原因引起的工作场所伤害和疾病 接触化学物质是可以预防的。改善工作场所安全的成功干预措施 从掌握了解问题严重程度所需的数据开始。 北卡罗来纳州使用多管齐下的监测方法来应对化学品排放和 暴露，重点是监测和预防职业伤害。三 监测系统协同工作，监测紧急化学品的释放和接触 两种普遍存在的有害物质--一氧化碳和杀虫剂。该数据是 为特定事件提供及时的公共卫生应对和干预信息。 北卡罗来纳州正在寻求扩大资金，以监测化学品暴露： 1.综合化学品暴露监测，包括急性农药中毒化学品 将一氧化碳释放和职业一氧化碳中毒纳入统一软件平台 以获得更有效的回应。 2.提高对化学品进行后续面谈和转介的能力 暴露，包括职业性一氧化碳中毒、农药中毒。 3.提供应急支持和多学科职业健康 咨询，以保护公众健康和员工。 4.维持、发展和推动以新兴职业为重点的协作项目 卫生监测优先事项与州内合作伙伴的坚定网络。 5.与州外区域和国家合作伙伴合作，设计和推广最佳 职业监督的实施办法。 新冠肺炎对国家层面的公共卫生监测产生了很大影响 大流行。我们的工作人员自2020年1月以来一直被部署到应急部门，该部门已经 推迟了我们的几项例行监视活动。然而，认识到占领 新冠肺炎期间，影响健康得到了更多的国家关注和公众意识 大流行。尽管在许多国家缺乏行业、职业、种族和民族信息 数据来源限制了我们作为公共卫生专业人员充分应对 大流行，我们可以在国家认可的基础上，创新我们监测和改进的方式 这个县的职业健康。
