[Evaluation of the nervous system in workers as needed for preventive examinations. Methodology. I. Subjective examinations].

Abstract:

:A model for taking a case history useful in the preliminary evaluation of the nervous system is proposed. The evaluation is to be made by physicians/working in the occupational health services who are not neurologists. Guidelines how to take a case history are given and some questions are thoroughly discussed. The most important questions apply to the loss of consciousness and past diseases of the nervous system.
