Abstract
Occupational dyskinesia is a functional damage to the central nervous system, characterized by an impaired coordination of precise movements that are necessary to perform certain operations. The disease develops gradually and manifests in employees with a long work experience. At the same time, other motor functions are preserved. There are convulsive, paretic, ataxic, trembling, neuralgic and mixed clinical forms of this pathology at the present stage. In the initial period, the diagnosis of occupational dyskinesia causes certain difficulties associated with the spread of symptoms exclusively to one action. It is also difficult to verify the presence of dyskinesia itself, which is described by a patient. Treatment should be started as early as possible, as it is effective only at the initial stage of the disease. A complete and sufficiently long cessation of professional activity is necessary. Treatment is long and comprehensive. Preventive measures involve the correct organization of work with an even distribution of professional workload. Since occupational dyskinesia is diagnosed late, at the stage of already developed clinical manifestations, the prognosis for recovery is doubtful. The professional prognosis is unfavorable. Patients need reorientation and retraining for related professions.
