CHARACTERIZING PHYSICAL STRAIN IN NON-ROUTINIZED CLINICAL WORK THROUGH OBSERVATION: AN EXAMPLE OF ORAL HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS.
Article in Proceedings of the International Symposium of Human Factors and Ergonomics in Healthcare. International Symposium of Human Factors and Ergonomics in Healthcare, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02587897 (Sonographic Tissue Morphology in Early Stage Work-related Median Nerve Pathology), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
The Revised Strain Index (RSI), despite its prevalence in ergonomics field practice, is designed to assess jobs with cyclic and predictable physical and behavioral patterns. The quantification of exertion force, posture, and work task duration is substantially more challenging for non-routinized work in clinical and hospital environments. Using dental hygiene work as an exemplar, we proposed a consolidated method to characterize physical exertion for non-routinized work. We conducted the RSI adaptation process in two phases. In phase one, we characterized exertion in non-routinized work and identified representative intensity and posture patterns. In phase two, we validated the consolidated method using a small subset of dental hygiene video recordings and compared the results to the conventional sampling method.
