LISOK, A., & NAUMAU, I. (2016). HYGIENIC ASSESSMENT OF THE WORKING CONDITIONS OF OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGICAL DOCTORS. Higher School's Pulse, 10(4), 3-7. doi:10.5604/20812021.1225359
The text analyzes a thorough study conducted on the working conditions of OB/GYNs and the way in which these factors affect these physicians. The author references specific risks to these types of physicians’ health, which conveys the importance of a healthy environment. One area of concern being described as, “the presence of extragenital pathologies in female obstetricians and gynecologists, arising as a result of contact with harmful occupational factors, contributes to abnormalities in the functioning of the female reproductive system during preparation for pregnancy…” (Lisok, 2016). New technology and procedures are referenced with regards to their implementation to make this specific field safer for both healthcare workers and patients. Potential quotes that can be utilized from this source include further discussion about other risks that have been shown to arise as a result of working in this field. In addition to health risks, there are significant quotes regarding the emotional and mental toll that a job in this field can have on workers which can also greatly impede the work of physicians and other healthcare professionals. The article is published on Galileo by “Higher School’s Pulse” which is a professional medical school in Poland. This academic journal is credible due to the experience of the medical students who wrote it, both with strong backgrounds in hygiene. These individuals have extensive knowledge in their fields and published this journal in partnership with their university who has done several studies on this topic. I plan on utilizing the specific types of risks for OB/GYNs described in order to expand on the importance of medical professionals’ working environment on their success. This information will enable me to expand my research from merely mental/emotional adversity in the medical field to legitimate physical health concerns that may arise. I will support my information by citing quotes directly from the source in my Capstone project.
