Innovative mouse helps stress, arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

(PRWEB) July 22, 2004

A new pistol grip shaped, handheld mouse by ErgoLogical of Dallas, TX., may prevent or reduce RSI (repetitive stress injuries), carpal tunnel syndrome, fatigue and other ailments commonly caused by usage of a computer mouse and or gaming controller. The new ergonomic pistol grip mouse provides pain and stress relief to those suffering with RSI and arthritis by the unique handheld ergonomic design. You do not need to place this device on a surface to work it is handheld and can be used in just about any position you like. The best ergonomic position for your hand is achieved by placing your arm to your side, then relaxing your hand. The pistol grip design allows the mouse to fit comfortably in your hand and requires very little effort to operate. Ease of use also reduces muscle and movement effort, maximizes comfort and provides the ability to move naturally thus greatly minimizing strain and stress.

RSI insurance claims costs insurance companies an average of about $ 65,000 per claim in benefits and medical bills. The new innovative ergonomic devices are a welcomed tool to the computer, gaming, medical and insurance industries. The pistol grip like hand controllers designed by Ergonomic Engineer and Inventor, William Baker will greatly reduce the development of RSI and other stress and musculoskeletal injuries at home and in the workplace. The hand held mouse is also easier to use for people with arthritis as it may very well even be great therapy for arthritis according to Mr. Baker who also suffers from arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome and has personally benefited from the new devices and is excited to share the benefits with the global community that this affects.

The advice from doctors and ergonomic specialists for mouse users and game controller users has been to limit use to 10 or 15 minute intervals with 5 to 10 minute breaks. With the ErgoPointer you do not experience the heavy stress and fatigue that one experiences from using a mouse thus extending and improving overall productivity. Employers will also benefit by the reduction of RSI claims, increased productivity and employee morale.

Ergonomics Remains Controversial Issue — Carpal Tunnel Link and Business Impact Disputed in Safety.BLR.com Poll

Old Saybrook, CT (PRWEB) February 8, 2006

When it comes to controversy in the safety profession, ergonomics — the science of fitting the job to the worker doing that job — always tops the list. According to two recent polls conducted by Safety.BLR.com, “Making Safety Training and Compliance Easier,” safety managers seem to be at odds with both a recent medical study and the view of many in business who have fought OSHA’s proposed ergonomics standard. Poll results show that a majority of safety pros view computer use as a causal factor in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), and that an ergonomics standard would have little impact on economic activity.

The first poll asked: “Do you believe computer use causes carpal tunnel syndrome?” Fully 55 percent of the 474 respondents responded in the affirmative, that they believe there to be a causal link between CTS incidence and computer use.

These results came after the release of a Harvard Medical School paper disputing the linking of computer use and CTS. The researchers asserted that not only was there no link, but that computer use up to 7 hours a day has no effect on risk for developing CTS. Instead, risk factors may include heredity, body weight, fracture, or even pregnancy.

The second poll asked: “What effect would an ergonomics standard have on the economy?” Sixty-one percent of the 265 respondents said that its effect would only be slightly positive, slightly negative, or have no effect. This poll was conducted after the Michigan Senate passed legislation blocking regulations on workplace ergonomics.

“Viewed as a whole, the results seem to show that ergonomics remains an important issue for safety managers,” said Steve Quilliam, editor of Safety.BLR.com. “They show that folks are convinced of the seriousness of carpal tunnel as an ergonomics hazard and that regulations to protect workers are necessary and would have a negligible economic effect.”

To help control ergonomics hazards in the workplace, the safety editors at Safety.BLR.com have developed a free download, “Musculoskeletal Disorder Prevention Checklist.” Download it here: http://www.blr.com/81001600/PRS86

Wrist, arm, shoulder and neck muscles become involved when working on a flat keyboard; on the DataHand keyboard, only the fingers move. ¥ Reduces key activation forces. The fingers of DataHand operators use 20 grams of force compared to 55 to 100 grams required on the flat keyboard. Research has shown forces below 48 grams reduce risks of musculoskeletal injury. Flat keyboard ÒbangersÓ often use forces 4 to 7 times higher than necessary. ¥ Provides optimal position and support for hands, wrists, and arms. The DataHand design ensures correct pronation and relaxation of the hands, wrists, and arms.
