Sažetak
A group of 120 patients was examined. Only inflammatory and degenerative rheumatic diseases were taken into consideration. The everage sick-leaves of the examined patients were 371 days in the last two years prior to the evaluation of their work ability. 55 of these rheumatic patients (46%) were at the same time undergoing treatment for psychoneurosis and similar disorders in addition to their basic rheumatic disease. It is well-known in professional literature that 27"/« of the patients who are subjected to evaluation of their work ability because of their psychosomatic diseases start to suffer from neurosis. According to our analysis the percentage of neurotics is remarkably higher among the patients suffering from rheumatism and it amounts to 46%. The authors come to conclusion that the permanent injuries of locomotor system together with the inadequate working conditions are the causes of protracted sick-leaves, as well as of radical psychical changes of patients who tend to resign themselves to their illness, the results are disturbances in social relations and in the end the complete lack of motivation to labour.
