Set Up and Ergonomics in Oculofacial Surgery
摘要
Efficient and safe oculofacial surgeryOculofacial surgery set up starts with operating room set up. This includes proper patient positioning and drapingDraping. Equipment and supplies should be organized. Attention to ergonomics improves the quality of surgery and forestalls musculoskeletal injury. Oculofacial plastic surgeons are at particular risk for developing work-related neck or back disorders due to repetitive motions, static loading, or sustained exertions. Moreover, injudicious use of loupesLoupes or headlightsHeadlights can further lead to strain or injury. This chapter describes operating room set up and ergonomicsErgonomics that maximize efficiency and safety of oculofacial surgeries and mitigate risk of injury to surgeons.
