Exoskeletons for Healthcare Professions
Exoskeletons for Healthcare Professions
Preventing Pain and Prolonging Well-being at Work
Healthcare professionals, including nurses and nursing assistants, are among those most impacted by Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). The primary causes are prolonged static postures, assisting with patient mobility, and supporting patients during caregiving tasks.
Doctors and surgeons are also at high risk for MSDs in the workplace. Depending on their specialties, they can experience discomfort and pain due to repetitive movements, prolonged awkward postures in the OR, and the strain associated with the precision required in their work.
Exoskeletons offer an innovative and effective solution to address these challenges by preventing pain and fatigue on a daily basis, while promoting long-term sustainability and well-being in the workplace.

These solutions are aimed at preventing muscle pain and reducing the risk of conditions such as lower back pain, tendinitis, and neck discomfort.
