Background: Attention and awareness towards MSDs in the dental profession has increased considerably in recent years. From recent literature reviews, it is learned that prevalence of MSDs in dentists is 64-93%. It has been seen that the use of magnification systems not only improves the operator's visual capabilities, but also allows for a more correct posture, and to prevent the onset of back and neck disorders. Purpose and methods: Evaluate dentist posture during extraction of third lower molars depending on whether the operator uses the naked eye, surgical loupes or surgical microscope systems. Data will be evaluated through the index RULA (rapid upper limb assesment) to define whether there is a change in exposure to the risk of MSDs (Muskoloskeletal disease) and using fiducial markers for the movement analysis of the operator during the procedure.

Primary | Posture and fatiguing positions | Specific postural analysis using fiducial markers: a set of markers on the back of a tight T-shirt worn by the dentist during the whole operation will be acquired using a 5 MPixels camera at 2 fps.
We will place the markers in order to focus our analysis on the following parameter: the neck position with respect to the trunk, the trunk orientation with respect to the vertical axis, the twist and bending of the neck and back, the overall static position duration of the neck and the back. The rotation angles of every marker will be extracted and stored for every frame of the recorder video. |
