Summary
This study will use digital motion-capture software to compare how often female and male physical therapists in Egypt are at risk for work-related muscle and joint injuries. Researchers will record therapists' movements with an iPhone and analyze their posture and range of motion. The goal is to see if one gender faces higher risk, which could lead to better workplace safety guidelines.
