Bilgisayar kullanıcılarında üst ekstremite işe bağlı kas iskelet hastalıkları ve ergonomi girişiminin etkinliği

Öz:
Son yirmi yılda çalışma ortamında bilgisayar kullanımı hızla artmaktadır. İş yerlerine bilgisayarın girmesi verimliliği artırırken iş organizasyonlarında değişikliklere ve yeni risk etkenlerinin gelişimine sebep olarak üst ekstremite işe bağlı kas iskelet hastalıkları (ÜE-İKİH) başta olmak üzere birçok sağlık sorununu da beraberinde getirmektedir. Sıklığı giderek artmakta olan ÜEİKİH’den korunmak iş yerinde doğru vücut mekaniği ilkelerinin uygulanması ve ergonomik çalışma ortamının sağlanması ile mümkündür. Yönetim desteği ve çalışanın aktif katılımını kapsayan yaklaşımlar başarıyı arttırmaktadır. Etkin önleme stratejileri geliştirebilmek için bu hastalıklar ve etkileri hakkında daha fazla bilgi gerekmektedir. Bu derlemede amacımız bilgisayar kullanıcılarında ÜE-İKİH’nin sıklığı, maliyeti ve risk etkenleri hakkında literatürü gözden geçirmek ve bu hastalıklarda korunma programları ve ergonomi girişimleri ile ilişkin kanıtları incelemektir.

Upper extremity work-related musculoskeletal disorders among computer users and effectiveness of ergonomic ınterventions

Öz:
During the last two decades, computer use in the workplace has increased dramatically. Along with the increase in the productivity, the presence of computer in the workplace leads to changes in the workplace organizations and to emergence of new risk factors, thus causing many health problems such as upper extremity work-related musculoskeletal disorders (UE-WMSD) among computer users. The prevention of UEWMSD, which frequency increases continuously, is possible with applying proper body mechanics and providing an ergonomic workplace. An approach that encloses the employer’s support and the active employee participation will increase the success of these programs. In terms of developing new effective prevention strategies, we need to understand more about these disorders. The aim of this study was to review the literature about the prevalence, risk factors and cost in UEWMSD and also to evaluate the evidence about the prevention programs and ergonomic interventions related to these disorders.
