J CARDIOVASC RISK , 2000, vol. 7, n° 4, p. 273-276 Doc n°: 98710 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : FA331 - MALADIE CORONARIENNE Coronary heart disease (CHD) has been often regarded as a psychosomatic illness; one of the psychosocial variables influencing the onset or course of disease is stress. Work stress in particular may therefore be a significant factor influencing CHD. Method: This descriptive review derives from those predictive studies of work stress and CHD published from 1990-2000 based on structured literature searches. Results: There is reasonably robust and consistent empirical evidence indicating some causal relationship between work stress and CHD risk. Conclusions: Work stress has clear implications for the health and welfare of employees and medico legal implications for employers Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI Identifiant basis : 2001214641 |
