"SURGICAL ERGONOMICS FOR THE NEUROTOLOGIST"
Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are extremely prevalent in surgeons, with widely cited rates exceeding 70% across all surgical fields including otolaryngology. Within otolaryngology, otology/neurotology has some of the highest cited rates of neck, shoulder and back pain. Work-related MSD results in negative consequences for both personal health and professional/career longevity. This seminar will discuss ergonomic factors relevant to the neurotologist, including risk factors specific to otology/neurotology, impact of technology, and evidence-based techniques to prevent or mitigate work-related MSD. Panelists and moderators include individuals with published expertise on this topic in otology/neurotology, as well as those with unique expertise in ergonomics and otolaryngology as well as human factors research.
Date: Wednesday, January 25, 2023
