Does computer use increase the risk of musculoskeletal disorders among newspaper office workers?
The findings of our study showed that PC use increased risk of developing musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD-H and WMSD-UE). Such an increase is mediated by ergonomic factors such as mouse use, remaining seated for prolonged periods, adoption of inadequate or uncomfortable postures, performing certain PC tasks, and psychosocial factors.
A video-based learning activity was effective for preparing physiotherapy students for practical examinations and conferred benefits of reduced anxiety and improved performance.
