Abstract:
Work-related diseases and disorders remain a significant global health concern, necessitating multifaceted measures for mitigation. One potential measure is work technique training utilizing augmented feedback through wearable motion capture systems. However, there exists a research gap regarding its current effectiveness in both real work environments and controlled settings, as well as its ability to reduce postural exposure and retention effects over short, medium, and long durations. A rapid review was conducted, utilizing two databases and three previous literature reviews to identify relevant studies published within the last twenty years, including recent literature up to the end of 2023. Sixteen studies met the inclusion criteria, of which 14 were of high or moderate quality. These studies were summarized descriptively, and the strength of evidence was assessed. Among the included studies, six were rated as high quality, while eight were considered moderate quality. Notably, the reporting of participation rates, blinding of assessors, and a-priori power calculations were infrequently performed. Four studies were conducted in real work environments, while ten were conducted in controlled settings. Vibration feedback was the most common feedback type utilized (n = 9), followed by auditory (n = 7) and visual feedback (n = 1). All studies employed corrective feedback initiated by the system. In controlled environments, evidence regarding the effectiveness of augmented feedback from wearable motion capture systems to reduce postural exposure ranged from strong evidence to no evidence, depending on the time elapsed after feedback administration. Conversely, for studies conducted in real work environments, the evidence ranged from very limited evidence to no evidence. Future reach needs are identified and discussed.
摘要:
与工作有关的疾病和失调仍然是一个重大的全球健康问题,需要采取多方面的缓解措施。一种潜在的措施是通过可穿戴运动捕捉系统利用增强反馈的工作技术训练。然而,关于其在实际工作环境和受控环境中的当前有效性存在研究空白,以及它在短期内减少姿势暴露和保留效应的能力,中等,和长持续时间。进行了快速审查,利用两个数据库和三个以前的文献综述来确定过去二十年内发表的相关研究,包括直到2023年底的最新文献。16项研究符合纳入标准,其中14个质量高或中等。这些研究进行了描述性总结,并评估了证据的强度。在纳入的研究中,六个被评为高质量,而八个被认为是中等质量。值得注意的是,参与率的报告,对评估员致盲,和先验功率计算很少执行。四项研究是在真实的工作环境中进行的,十项是在受控环境中进行的。振动反馈是最常用的反馈类型(n=9),其次是听觉(n=7)和视觉反馈(n=1)。所有研究都采用了由系统发起的纠正性反馈。在受控环境中,关于可穿戴运动捕捉系统增强反馈减少姿势暴露的有效性的证据从强有力的证据到没有证据,取决于反馈管理后经过的时间。相反,对于在真实工作环境中进行的研究,证据从非常有限的证据到没有证据。确定并讨论了未来的延伸需求。
