Product Description

Chronic back and neck pain. Whiplash. Fibromyalgia. Carpal tunnel syndrome. Intractable headaches. Depression. Anxiety and posttraumatic stress. Concussion. More than ever, the term workplace disabilities is synonymous with greater clinical and case management complexity and escalating personal, social, occupational and economic cost. Complex illnesses and injuries that defy a traditional medical management model continue to baffle medical, mental health, rehabilitation, compensation, corporate, and legal professionals despite new advances in diagnosis, prevention, and rehabilitation. The Handbook of Complex Occupational Disability Claims: Early Risk Identification, Intervention and Prevention cuts through the confusion by integrating current theories and findings into a state-of-the-art tool for critical thinking, decision making, and effective practice.

This clear-sighted, interdisciplinary and integrative volume goes beyond cataloguing symptoms or sorting legitimate from fraudulent cases—its emphasis is on early detection of risk and management to prevent injury from developing into long-term disability. Editors Schultz and Gatchel and their 49 expert contributors offer lucid evaluations of the scientific and clinical literature to repair the mind/body split that has traditionally defined this field: (1) Conceptual and methodological issues in the prediction of disability. (2) Biopsychosocial perspectives on the most prevalent disabling conditions, including  chronic pain syndromes, repetitive strain injuries, depression, anxiety, traumatic brain injury, and posttraumatic stress disorder. (3) Application of clinical findings to the rehabilitation, disability management, occupational and compensation arenas, and return-to-work practices. (4) In-depth discussion of the relationship between impairment and work disability. (5) Specific evidence-based early intervention approaches for workers and patients at risk.

A book that synthesizes so many diverse viewpoints has the potential to influence both policy and practice across disciplines and cut through politicization of these still poorly understood conditions with evidence. The Handbook is important reading for all clinicians, professionals, and members of rehabilitation and disability management teams, across healthcare, occupational and compensation settings.

Fibromyalgia linked to increased cancer risk.: An article from: Family Practice News

The risk factors related to Fibromyalgia are as follows:

Age: Generally, people between the ages of 20 to 60 are more likely to get affected by fibromyalgia. Going by the statistics, people around thirty five years of age are mostly affected by this disease.

Gender: Women are more affected by this disease as compared to men. They generally tend to develop this disease during menopause. Some studies show that nine out of ten fibromyalgia patients are women.

Genetic factors: Studies have shown that genetic factor is involved in the development of this disease. People with family members suffering from fibromyalgia are more likely to get affected by this disease. According to reports, 28 per cent of children of mothers suffering from fibromyalgia developed this disease.

Sleep disorders: People suffering from different kinds of sleep disorders such as insomnia, sleep apnea, are more likely to get affected by this disease.

Rheumatic disease: People with rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and lupus are at a higher chance of developing Fibromyalgia.

Muscle injury: Any kind of muscle injury can result in the formation of trigger points. Continuous stress on such trigger points can lead to fibromyalgia. During recovery from surgery or stroke, one can experience trigger points in the muscle.

Other factors: Generally people coming from a stressful environment or who have undergone physical or psychological trauma are at a higher risk of developing fibromyalgia. People suffering from stress, depression or anxiety are more susceptible to this.

Considering the risk factors involved in this disease, people experiencing any symptom need to consult a doctor for proper treatment of Fibromyalgia at an early stage.
