Building Capacity for State-Based Occupational Health Surveillance

这项提案的总体目标是协助NIOSH执行NIOSH中规定的目标 加强国家卫生部门职业能力建设的监测战略部署 健康监测。CSTE计划在之前与NIOSH合作的基础上，增加状态- 通过维护和加强职业健康，建立职业健康监测能力 展示职业健康监测数据实际应用的指标(OHIS)；以及 促进国家间的合作。未来五年将开展的具体活动包括： 通过更新OHI指导文件保持OHIS的效用，该指导文件包含定义和 用于生成OHI的过程，并确保跨州的数据一致性； 根据当前需求和现有数据，制定增加或删除职业健康保险的标准； 评估职业健康保险制度，以确保继续使用所收集的监测信息； 通过汇编案例研究来提高对监控数据的认识并提高其利用率 有效利用职业健康监测数据为工作场所干预计划提供信息； 加强CSTE职业健康网站的建设，以国家为基础共享 职业健康监测信息，包括数据、方法和数据发布方式； 主办一年一度的教育电视电话会议，以培养监视技能；以及 通过建立辅导，在实施新的职业健康监测计划的州建设能力 与更有经验的国家的关系。 监测系统，提供有关工伤程度和分布的信息 和疾病以及它们发生的环境对于制定有效的预防措施至关重要 程序。最近对州流行病能力的评估发现，10%的州卫生部门 有相当大的职业健康监测能力，而77%的人只有很少的能力或没有能力。CSTE 拟议的活动将有助于提高国家职业健康监测的能力。

The overall goal of this proposal is to assist NIOSH in implementing the goals set forth in the NIOSH Surveillance Strategic Plan to strengthen the capacity of state health departments to conduct occupational health surveillance. CSTE plans to build upon their previous collaboration with NIOSH to increase state- based occupational health surveillance capacity by maintaining and enhancing the occupational health indicators (OHIs), demonstrating the practical applications of occupational health surveillance data, and promoting collaboration among States. The specific activities to be conducted over the next five years are to: Maintain the utility of the OHIs by updating the OHI guidance document, which contains definitions and processes for generating the OHIs and ensures data consistency across states; Establish criteria for adding or removing OHIs according to current needs and available data; Evaluate the OHIs to ensure continued utility of surveillance information gathered; Build awareness and increase utilization of surveillance data by compiling case studies that demonstrate the effect use of occupational health surveillance data to inform workplace intervention programs; Enhance the CSTE occupational health website to serve as a repository to share state-based occupational health surveillance information, including data, methods, and data dissemination methods; Host an annual educational teleconference to build surveillance skills; and Build capacity in States with new occupational health surveillance programs by establishing mentoring relationships with more experienced States. Surveillance systems that provide information about the magnitude and distribution of work-related injuries and illnesses, and the circumstances in which they occur are essential to developing effective prevention programs. A recent assessment of state epidemiologic capacity found that 10% of state health departments had substantial occupational health surveillance capacity, while 77% had minimal to no capacity. CSTE proposed activities will help increase capacity for state-based occupational health surveillance.
