  • 摘要:

    The desastrous traffic accidents to date have provided the relevance for promotion of harmonization of work with treatment and prevention of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in transport sectors. SDB is highly prevalent in commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers and is one cause of cognitive impairment and consequent traffic accidents, potentially costing billions and leading to many deaths. Various screening, diagnostic, and therapeutic approaches, some well established, are explored in this paper. Although drivers with SDB need to be appropriately diagnosed and treated, some are reluctant to continue their treatment or never submit to screening because of a lack of information. Thus, CMV drivers need to be well informed and screened, in addition to being encouraged to continue the treatment. The harmonization of work with treatment and prevention aids these objectives, providing benefits not only for individual health but also for transport companies, and further being an essential step towards uptake of “health and productivity management” in the transport sectors.
