The Balancing Act: Ergonomic Challenges for Pregnant Microvascular Surgeons in the Operating Room
This study evaluates the intraoperative ergonomic challenges faced by pregnant microvascular surgeons by comparing detailed motion‐analysis data collected at 36–37 weeks' gestation with postpartum assessments. Findings show that pregnancy significantly increases time spent in unsafe postures (particularly involving the neck, elbows, and knees), while ...
