Deviations from normal in the sitting and standing postures at work among dental surgeons

E. Čatović ; Katedra za ortopediju Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Abstract

The author aims at establishing differences between the sitting and standing working postures of dental surgeons and U1e referent positions given by Muftić (2). The geometry of the postures is analysed by means of the photographs of different body positions. The differences in quantitative values appear to be small (4-5 %) and, from the ergonomic point of view, suboptimal.
