Abstract

Members of the surgical team experience musculoskeletal (MS) symptoms that impact occupational health. Although the prevalence of MS symptoms in this population is well-recognized, limited interventions with sustained success exist for the operating room (OR) environment. The purpose of this work was to determine the facilitators of and barriers to exoskeleton technology in the OR, as a potential intervention to reduce upper-body MS pain and discomfort for surgical team members.
