Abstract:
With an aging population there is a growing need to assist people with disabilities. Particularly crucial is assisting people who cannot stand between positions necessary for everyday living, such as from a wheelchair to the toilet. It is unsafe to transfer people with direct manual techniques, thus a patient handling device is required. To reduce the burden on the healthcare system it is beneficial for disabled people to be cared for in-home. Many in-home caregivers may be physically impaired, thus patient handling devices for this use must require as little effort as possible. This thesis

Abstract:
Assisting less able people to move in a healthcare setting is a very common occurrence but carries risks to staff and patients. The scientific study of patient handling activities and interventions to help reduce musculoskeletal disorders in the workplace is a relatively new but growing area. Recent literature reviews have identified two key factors, the lack of high quality studies and the lack of strong links between patient handling interventions and reduced musculoskeletal injury. This study has systematically reviewed the available literature and investigated the potential outcome measure

Abstract:
Pressure ulcers and related skin integrity threats are a significant problem in current transfer/transport systems used for spinal cord injury patients. To understand this problem twenty-three different slings with varying type, material, and features were analyzed in hopes to identify at-risk areas for skin integrity threats such as pressure ulcers. Population samples included non-disabled (otherwise referred to as "healthy") volunteers as well as SCI patients from the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital. High resolution pressure interface mapping was utilized to directly measure the interface p

Abstract:
Remote area staff performing manual patient handling tasks in the absence of patient lifting hoists available in most health care settings are at an elevated risk of musculoskeletal injuries. The objective of this project was to identify the patient handling methods that have the lowest risk of injury. The patient handling task of lifting a patient from floor to a chair or wheelchair is a common task performed in a remote health care setting. The task was performed utilising three methods, these being: (1) heads/tails lift, (2) use of two Blue MEDesign?? slings and (3) use of a drawsheet.

Abstract:
Background: Healthcare workers are ranked among one of the top occupations for musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) injuries that affect the muscles, the bones, the nervous system and due to repetitive motion tasks (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2017). Numerous high-risk patient handling tasks such as lifting, transferring, ambulating and repositioning of patients cause injuries that can be prevented when evidence-based solutions are used for safe patient handling and mobility (SPHM) tasks. Purpose: The purpose of this quality improvement project was to evaluate the knowledge and attit

Abstract:
In a 1994 survey, on incidence rates of musculoskeletal injuries among private industries within the U.S, nurses ranked first nationally. Patient handling tasks are considered to be a precipitating factor in the development of many musculoskeletal injuries. For many decades personnel training has been an intervention widely used for the nursing back problem. Inconsistency regarding the effectiveness of many personnel training programs, lack of controlled research among existing studies, and a primary focus only on long term reduction of injury rates makes the interpretati

Abstract:
Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are prevalent among health care workers worldwide and underreporting among nurses may mask the true impact of these injuries. Nursing staff are consistently among the top 10 occupations at risk for experiencing WMSDs and patient-handling tasks are the precipitating event in the majority of back injuries experienced among nursing staff. Existing research has focused on patient-handling issues within long-term care facilities, and identifying physically demanding patient-handling tasks.

Abstract:
Each year, thousands of nurses and other health care workers are injured from manually lifting patients. A few decades ago managers were mostly focusing on minimizing direct manufacturing costs but because of the competitive markets nowadays managers should also focus on indirect costs. In this situation the importance of supply chain networks and facility location problems becomes more visible. The need of sophisticated and applicable facility location models is vital and that’s because of indirect manufacturing costs (such as transportation, inventory, procurement & etc.) are considered
