KLAIPĖDOS REGIONE DIRBANČIŲ BURNOS HIGIENISTŲ NAUDOJAMŲ PRIEMONIŲ, PADEDANČIŲ SUMAŽINTI DARBO APLINKOS VEIKSNIŲ DAROMĄ ŽALĄ SVEIKATAI, EFEKTYVUMAS by Šarūnė Barsevičienė, Viktorija Paulauskienė, Viktorija Venevičienė

“…Rezultatai parodė, kad burnos higienistai gerai išmano ergonomikos taisykles ir jų taikymą darbo aplinkoje, bet ne visi naudojasi priemonėmis, padedančiomis sumažinti darbo aplinkos veiksnių poveikį sveikatai, todėl jau net jaunesni nei 27 metų amžiaus burnos higienistai patiria kaulų- raumenų sistemos sutrikimų, kurie su amžiumi tik dažnėja. Balninė kėdė, optika su didinamaisiais lęšiais ir treniruotės 2 kartus per savaitę yra efektyvios prevencinės priemonės, naudojamos burnos higienistų, nes tie, kurie jas taiko, patiria mažiau sveikatos sutrikimų už tuos, kurie jų netaiko.…”
