First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study aims to create a hands-on training program to teach operating room teams—surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nurses—how to work more comfortably and avoid injuries. Poor ergonomics causes pain in over half of OR staff, leading to burnout and early retirement. The project will develop and test a simulation curriculum to bridge the gap between known ergonomic solutions and their use in practice.
