The aim of this study was to investigate the effect intraoperative targeted stretching micro breaks (TSMBs) on experienced pain and fatigue, physical functions, mental focus surgeons.Surgeons are routinely subject stresses through course their work in operating room. One factors most contributory shortening a surgeon's career is work-related its effects patient safety personal relationships.Surgeons room staff from 4 medical centers rated pain/fatigue, physical, performance using validated...
Recent literature has demonstrated ergonomic risk to surgeons in the operating room. One method used other industries mitigate these risks is incorporation of microbreaks. Thus, intraoperative microbreaks with exercises a non-crossover design were studied. Fifty-six attending from 4 Medical Centers volunteered first day their regular surgeries and then second where there that could be performed sterile field, answering questions after each case, without significantly increasing duration...
Objective The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between eye-tracking measures and perceived workload in robotic surgical tasks. Background Robotic techniques provide improved dexterity, stereoscopic vision, ergonomic control system over laparoscopic surgery, but complexity interfaces operations may pose new challenges surgeons compromise patient safety. Limited studies have objectively quantified its impact on performance surgery. Although not yet implemented minimally...
Objective The objective of this study was to identify potential needs and barriers related using exoskeletons decrease musculoskeletal (MS) symptoms for workers in the operating room (OR). Background MS injuries adversely impact worker health performance surgical environments. Half team members (e.g., surgeons, nurses, trainees) report during after surgery. Although ergonomic risks surgery are well recognized, little has been done develop sustain effective interventions. Method Surgical ( n...
Maintaining situation awareness (SA) is essential for drivers to deal with the situations that Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Level 3 automated vehicle systems are not designed handle. Although advanced physiological sensors can enable continuous SA assessments, previous single-modality approaches may be sufficient capture SA. To address this limitation, current study demonstrates a multimodal sensing approach objective monitoring. Physiological sensor data from electroencephalogram...
Surgical performance, provider health, and patient safety can be compromised when workload demands exceed individual capability on the surgical team. The purpose of this study is to quantify compare intraoperative among team members.Observations were conducted for an entire day 33 participating surgeons their at one medical institution. Workload (mental, physical, case complexity, distractions, difficulty) was measured each member using questions from validated questionnaires. Statistical...
Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) may lead to higher patient satisfaction; however, SILC expose the surgeon increased workload. The goal of this study was compare stress and workload between conventional (CLC).During a double-blind randomized controlled trial comparing outcomes for versus CLC (NCT0148943), assessed by four measures: surgery task load index questionnaire (Surg-TLX), maximum heart rate, salivary cortisol level, instruments usability survey. rate levels were...
Monitoring surgeon workload during robot-assisted surgery can guide allocation of task demands, adapt system interfaces, and assess the robotic system's usability. Current practices for measuring cognitive load primarily rely on questionnaires that are subjective disrupt surgical workflow. To address this limitation, a computational framework is demonstrated to predict user telerobotic surgery. This leverages wireless sensors monitor surgeons’ their states. Continuous data across multiple...
Objective (1) To assess mental workloads of intensive care unit (ICU) nurses in 12-hour working shifts (days and nights) using eye movement data; (2) to explore the impact stress on ocular metrics performing patient ICU. Background Prior studies have employed workload scoring systems or accelerometer data ICU nurses’ workload. This is first naturalistic attempt data. Methods Tobii Pro Glasses 2 eye-tracking Empatica E4 devices were used collect physiological from 15 during (252 observation...
Background Nurse identification of patient deterioration is critical, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, as patients can deteriorate quickly. While literature has shown that nurses rely on intuition to make decisions, there limited information what sources data experienced utilize inform their intuition. The objectives this study were identify nurse decision-making related recognition deteriorating patients, and explore how impacted decision-making. Methods In qualitative study,...
Safety practitioners widely use the lifting index (LI) to determine workers’ risk but are hampered by difficulties of estimating load without intervention or intrusive sensors. This study proposes a computer vision method for LI across varying loads. The proposed can also predict Brog rating perceived exertion (RPE), measure associated with load. A controlled experiment was conducted demonstrate approach. Thirty participants performed 2176 tasks at three levels. These levels were and fixing...
Although traditional workplace settings such as hospitals and clinics are well-studied, non-clinical areas like home kitchens, which connect clinical healthcare with the care provided in daily living settings, have received less attention. During early stages of global pandemic, there has been an increase cooking activities due to widespread isolation restrictions imposed on dining publicly. Ergonomics is at intersection between work environments human task performance, kitchen ergonomics...
