Investigation On Anxiety Status Of Workers In Qinghai Oilfield And Analysis Of Related Risk Factors

BackgroundQinghai plateau is at an average altitude of 3000 m above, based on the Qinghai plateau, The working and living conditions of Qinghai oilfield is one of the worst and most difficult fields in the world. Owing to the high altitude in Qinghai plateau, workers of Qinghai oil field have to work with thin air, low atmospheric pressure, lacking of oxygen, cold climate, large temperature difference between day and night, strong ultraviolet ray, and etc,. Its unique plateau condition with special geographical condition and natural environment affects the workers in Qinghai oil field directly, no matter on life or the health of both body and mind. Studies have proved that in the early time when people get to plateau, many of them cannot fully adapt to the condition of plateau about the special environment, and they may get different degrees of psychological problems, This influence the workers seriously both in work and life, which will also affect the development of the oil field, and will bring serious damage to the development of our country. Although we have researched on altitude sickness for many years and also reached a high understanding about anxiety, but the researches about anxiety in plateau is still rare.
