Work Absenteeism and Presenteeism Loss in Patients With Non-Cardiac Chest Pain.

Objective: To assess work absenteeism and presenteeism, and to identify biopsychosocial predictors of these outcomes in workers with non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 375 active workers consulting in an emergency room for NCCP.

Results: About 66% (247/375) of participants reported work absenteeism in the 3 months preceding the consultation, while 36% (134/375) reported presenteeism during the same period.
