Ergonomi menjadi pilar kesehatan dan menjadi salah satu indikator kesejahteraan. perbaikan ergonomi perlu dilakukan sebagai salah satu upaya pencegahan terhadap penyakit CTDs (Cumulative Trauma Disorders) akibat faktor risiko kerja postur janggal, beban, frekuensi dan durasi yang bersumber dari pekerjaan, seperti nyeri tengkuk, nyeri pinggang bawah atau low back pain, rasa baal pada jari telunjuk, jari tengah dan jari manis yang disertai nyeri terbakar pada malam hari, kekakuan, lemah dan nyeri saat tangan digunakan dan dikenal dengan nama Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Dalam ergonomi, postur tubuh adalah faktor yang sangat penting, salah satunya postur duduk yang setiap orang lakukan setiap hari dalam durasi berjam-jam. Tujuan utama membuat desain ergonomi untuk kursi atau tempat duduk dan meja adalah menciptakan sedemikian rupa bentuk kursi dan meja belajar, sehingga dapat mempertahankan postur tulang punggung yang fi siologis, dengan demikian diharapkan kerja otot tidak perlu berkontraksi secara berlebihan. Masalah ketidaksesuaian aspek ergonomi antara sarana kerja dan manusia serta pengaruhnya terhadap kesehatan belum mendapatkan perhatian yang serius di Indonesia. Hal ini terbukti dengan masih banyaknya tempat-tempat kerja yang belum berpedoman dengan kaidah ergonomi dalam hal penyediaan peralatan kerja bagi tenaga kerja. Ketepatan dimensi merupakan salah satu faktor penentu kenyamanan yang menunjang aspek fungsional dari suatu rancangan. Untuk menghasilkan suatu desain yang tepat dimensi perlu pertimbangan yang matang dan observasi yang cermat terkait dengan faktor manusia sebagai pengguna produk.

Abstract Introduction The Queen Victoria Hospital (QVH) was designated a cancer and trauma hub during the COVID-19 pandemic. With this, a new virtual hand trauma clinic was set up. We assess accuracy of assessment within this virtual set-up with comparison to pre COVID-19 face-to-face assessment. Method Two weeks of clinic sessions during and pre lockdown were analysed. Initial assessment was compared with the patient's operation note. Results In the pre COVID-19 two-week period 129 face-to-face appointments were analysed. Of 99 patients that required surgery 77 (78%) had an accurate assessment. 6 were overestimated, 12 were underestimated. 189 patients were seen over two weeks during lockdown via telephone or video call. Accuracy of assessment increased with seniority of the clinician. Of 126 patients that required an operation 109 (87%) had an accurate assessment; all structures injured were correctly predicted. 12 were overestimated, 5 had their injury underestimated. Conclusions The new virtual clinic allowed patients to be remotely assessed during lockdown, reducing footfall and unnecessary journeys. We found that virtual clinic assessments are accurate, and no patient underwent an unnecessary procedure. Using a telephone call plus photo gave similar accuracy as a video call. Virtual assessment was more accurate than face-to-face assessment.

Passive Motion

S Morris, a Freiberg, L Harris. Early experience with hand continuous passive motion. Can J Plast Surg 1993; 1 (1): 19-23. Clinical experience with continuous passive motion (CPM) has increased in recent years. However, little information is available in the literature of objective evaluation of the results obtained using this treatment modality. The purpose of this study was to review both the indications for hand CPM at the Toronto Western Hospital. Toronto. Ontario, and the course and the outcome of the patients treated. Between 1984 and 1989 the Mobilimb H1 CPM was used on 43 patients for a mean period of 39±6 days (mean total hours of CPM 741+84 h). Indications for hand CPM included hand trauma, capsulectomy and tenolysis and other hand conditions. Mean follow-up was 32+3 months. Overall, hand CPM was well tolerated and highly effective in relieving hand pain and increasing active and passive range of motion. Compliance was excellent.
