| Resumen |
M.D. thesis describing a study carried out to determine whether or not older dockers can carry out heavy work until their retirement at 65. The author examined 578 dockers aged 55 or over and analysed the health records of 503 of them. The examination was focused on biophysical parameters, biochemical determinations and exercise tests. The results, which were statistically processed, are reproduced and discussed. The electrocardiograms taken at rest and during exercise proved to be reliable indicators of impaired cardiorespiratory function. |
