Stress Diagnostics in Workplace Health Promotion

Study results regarding the use of neuropattern^™ stressdiagnostics at the Forestry Department Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

The burden of stress-related health-impairments in the occupational field can result in decreased work productivity, increase in rates of sick leave, cases of early retirement, and higher organizational costs. On an individual level, stress-related symptoms and lower quality of life are reported.

A pilot study suggests that applying neuropattern^™ to a non-clinical population and implementing it into early prevention may lead to a significant improvement of psychological health and health related behavior as well as a reduction of perceived stress and emotional exhaustion. Additionally, neuropattern^™ was able to sensitively detect functional changes in stress physiology at an early stage suggesting its usefulness within the occupational field for means of early prevention.
