International Journal of Nursing Studies, 1987
The need for ergonomic intervention to improve the working environment is nowhere more urgent than for the nursing profession. The Institute of Occupational Health, Helsinki, have been pioneers in the development of systems for ergonomic assessment of the workplace by the workers themselves and consideration is now being given to the question of ...

System dynamics is a computational modelling method that is used to understand the dynamic interactions influencing behaviour in complex systems. In this article we argue that the method provides a useful tool for ergonomists wishing to model the ...

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

Physiotherapists in ergonomics
Applied Ergonomics, 1982Recently, physiotherapy students in Denmark have been spending part of their hospital training period in a factory environment, studying working postures and work methods. It is concluded that physiotherapists so trained can provide patients with a better service and treatment through their improved knowledge of the causes of illness.

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2003
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 ...

With the many and vast advances of technology across generations and societies, the need to determine the best ways to align and use the human body in coordination with technology has increased accordingly. While occupational hazards and accidents date back to ancient times, and the Industrial Age resulted in accidents related to machinery, the human ...

Many model thinking in systems ergonomics: a case study in road safety
Ergonomics, 2019In complexity science, the many models thinking philosophy argues for a multi-method approach to complex problems. This article investigates whether the use of multiple systems ergonomics methods to examine the same problem is useful, or whether using ...
