DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): The overall goal of Connecticut's proposed Expanded Program for occupational health surveillance, which includes a fundamental and three expanded priority projects, is to maintain our current surveillance and intervention capacity in core program areas, while also expanding capacity in specific priority areas identified by the Connecticut Department of Public Health (DPH) Occupational Health Program. The primary objective of the proposed fundamental project is to maintain established capacity for occupational disease surveillance in Connecticut through continuing longitudinal analysis of occupational disease underreporting and the occupational health indicators, expanding selected disease-specific surveillance activities broadening the representation and scope of duties for the Connecticut Occupational Health Advisory Group, and maintaining regional collaboration with occupational health partners from the other Northeast states. The first expanded priority project seeks to establish an innovative surveillance program for occupational hazards in pregnancy by determining the distribution of occupations and industries in which pregnant workers in Connecticut are employed, assessing specific workplace exposures and work practices that may put pregnant workers at an increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes, and providing workplace intervention for pregnant workers with identified exposure risks. The goal of the second expanded priority project is to expand surveillance for work-related poisonings through systematic transfer of Poison Control Center call data to DPH, assessment of the proportion of workers reporting selected occupational poisoning exposures who seek subsequent medical care and/or experience adverse medical outcomes, and determination of the level of underreporting of work-related poisonings. The third expanded priority project is designed to establish a web-based electronic reporting system for occupational diseases in Connecticut by finalizing development and testing of an occupational disease reporting Program Area Module for the Connecticut NEDSS system and implementing this electronic reporting system in Connecticut occupational medicine clinics.

描述(由申请人提供)：康涅狄格州拟议的职业健康监测扩展计划的总体目标是保持我们目前在核心计划领域的监测和干预能力，同时还扩大康涅狄格州公共卫生部(DPH)职业健康计划确定的特定优先领域的能力。拟议基本项目的主要目标是维持康涅狄格州职业病监测的既定能力，办法是继续对职业病漏报和职业健康指标进行纵向分析，扩大选定的特定疾病监测活动，扩大康涅狄格州职业健康咨询小组的代表性和职责范围，并与东北其他州的职业健康合作伙伴保持区域协作。第一个扩大的优先项目寻求建立一个创新的怀孕期间职业危害监测计划，方法是确定康涅狄格州怀孕工人受雇的职业和行业分布，评估可能使怀孕工人面临不良妊娠结局风险增加的特定工作场所暴露和工作做法，并为已确定暴露风险的怀孕工人提供工作场所干预。第二个扩大的优先项目的目标是扩大对与工作有关的中毒的监测，方法是系统地将毒药控制中心的呼叫数据传输到DPH，评估报告所选职业中毒暴露的工人在随后寻求医疗护理和/或经历不利医疗后果的比例，以及确定与工作有关的中毒的漏报程度。第三个扩大的优先项目旨在通过完成康涅狄格州NEDSS系统职业病报告计划区模块的开发和测试，并在康涅狄格州职业医学诊所实施这一电子报告系统，在康涅狄格州建立一个基于网络的职业病电子报告系统。
