Abstract

The Veronesi method follows scientific criteria, applicable law, regulations and recommendations on the subject to a path in a structured completion and grounded to assist the court in decisions. The goal is to bring to society the knowledge of the technical and scientific aspects of the method. From TST guidelines, the method analyzes the nexus, conducts research in the workplace, where you use regulations such as ISO 11226 to assess posture and motion analysis software to quantify them, ISO 11228 for survey analysis the lifting and transport of weigth and repetitive activities. Using criteria established by the Instruction of the INSS for the link. It was a retrospective, cross-sectional, which randomly chose 100 cases by Method. It analyzed the number of affected segments (diagnosed diseases) that sought if there was a causal nexus, concausa nexus and no nexus. Randomly selected 10 first and second instance decisions in order to correlate the findings with the method. Found 159 diseases diagnosed being 49 showed 1 affected segment, 43 had 2 segments 7 with 3 segments, and 1 case with 4 diseased segments. They showed causal nexus in 71 cases, 50 nexus concausa and 38 no nexus. All judgments of first and second instance, the Veronesi method was accepted, giving sustainability to justice fulfill their craft. The study method was shown to be an important scientific technical tool to be used by experts for reports with informed and fundamentas conclusions, thus helping the judgment in fairer decisions.
