Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A person with thalidomide embryopathy (TE) complained of numbness in his left arm and he had induration of left trapezius m. As a result of our intervention by means of ergonomic workstation setting, his working posture was improved, the induration was resolved and his numbness was disappeared. He felt less tired in closing time almost every day. Another person with TE installed a new chair and adjusted the PC monitor to suitable position in order to be easy according to our advises. He felt less workload and recognized the usefulness of the work environment evaluation by professional ergonomist. For a finale, we produced booklets and leaflets for the prevention of secondary disabilities among people with TE in order to address themselves without the professional knowledge on health science and ergonomics.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
最終成果として、サリドマイド胎芽症者自身が、健康科学や人間工学といった専門的知識がなくても、二次障害予防に取り組めるように、「しおり」と「パンフレット」を制作した。我々の「二次障害予防チーム」がすべての事例(生活の困りごとや症状の悩み)に対して、直接、会いに出向いて二次障害予防策を実施することはできないので、このような分かりやすい「手引書」は有用で意義深いと考えられる。
