Review highlights prevention and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in workers, suggesting integrated approaches.
A review of modern approaches to the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of occupational dust-related lung diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, with an emphasis on maintaining working capacity, is realized. The analysis of scientific literature, including articles, guidelines and recommendations of professional associations, with an assessment of the levels of evidence, is carried out. The pathogenetic principles of treatment, medicinal and non-medicinal methods (pulmonary rehabilitation, physiotherapy, balneotherapy), their effectiveness in improving respiratory function, quality of life and reducing disability are described. Prevention includes technical, hygienic and medical measures. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease of occupational etiology remains a global problem requiring an integrated approach. Existing methods are effective, but new solutions for prevention and rehabilitation are needed.
