Ergonomics, 1976
This paper begins with an introduction and description of the background to this area; more general environmental aspects and certain chemical risks are then dealt with, followed by a discussion of accidents arising from consumer products. Finally, marketing of products from an ergonomic viewpoint and other aspects will be discussed.

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2018
AbstractThere is a growing body of evidence to suggest that surgeon posture while operating contributes to cervical musculoskeletal strain, discomfort, and chronic pain. Microsurgeons may be particularly susceptible to this risk due to persistent neck flexion, long periods of static posture, and the use of heavy, high‐power loupe magnification. Several

Industrial robotics have proven the benefit of using an untiring machine to perform precise repetitive tasks in uncomfortable or dangerous for humans environments. Highly skilled surgeons are trained to operate and adapt to difficult conditions. They are even capable of developing intelligent mechanisms to exploit a variety of tactile, visual, and ...
