Abstract:   (1661 Views)
Background and Aim: High prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders and their control among the workforce is one of the most important concerns of ergonomics experts in the world. On the other hand, many countries consider the prevention of these disorders as one of their national priorities. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of brochure-based education on ergonomic principles abidance among operating room technologists in Iran University of Medical Sciences from 2017 to 2018.
Materials and Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study with an experimental group (brochure-based education) and a control group with a pre-test post-test design. A total of 66 operating room technologists of the Iran University of Medical Sciences were selected by simple random sampling method and non randomly assigned to the groups. Data were collected by Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) checklist and using SPSS V.20, they were analyzed by non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests.
Results: The results showed positive effect of the brochure-based education method on ergonomic principles abidance among operating room technologists and a comparison between the control and brochure groups showed a statistically significant difference (P = 0.001).
Conclusion: This study showed the effectiveness of brochure-based education on ergonomics principles abidance among operating room technologists. Therefore, use of this method instead of conventional methods is recommended to prevent complications of musculoskeletal disorders.
Keywords: Brochure-based education, Medical education, Ergonomics principles, Operating room technologist
