Abstract

Introduction: Nursing is one of professions that employees are at risk of fatigue and work related musculoskeletal disorders, because of high physical workload and high job stress. Connecting serum set to serum solution is one of the repetitive tasks for NURSES in their working times and it may cause pain and discomfort in their hand. The aim of this study was to design and ergonomic evaluation of a tool for connecting serum set to serum solution.Material and Method: This experimental- interventional study conducted on 12 NURSES (6 men and 6 women) in 3 phases. First phase was assessment of manual connecting of serum set to the bag by NURSES, second phase was design and manufacturing of SERUM SET CONNECTOR and third was ergonomic assessment of the manufactured tool. In first and third phases, amount of perceived exertion by NURSES was assessed using the Burg scale (CR10), and electromyography assessment for hand muscles activity was conducted during connecting serum set. Data of first and third phases compared with statistical tests.Result: Mean score of perceived effort during manual connection of serum set was 5±1.2 (of 10) and while mechanical connection with designed tool was 2.3±0.49. There was significant difference between activity in 5 muscles (Flexor Digit Comonis, Flexor Carpi Radial, Biceps, Triceps and Deltoid) in manually and mechanically connection mode (P-value<0.05).Conclusion: Use of SERUM SET CONNECTOR reduced the perceived effort and activity of hand and wrist muscles. This device can be used as an ergonomic tool for NURSES to easing the inserting the serum set to serum solution.
