简要总结
De Quervain’s tenosynovitis is a painful and debilitating musculoskeletal disorder that often afflicts computer users due to repetitive thumb and wrist movements. The study employs a multidisciplinary approach, combining clinical assessments, ergonomic evaluations, and self-reported data to create a comprehensive screening instrument. Additionally, the research explores the prevalence of De Quervain’s tenosynovitis within the computer user population and investigates the associated risk factors. The findings of this research contribute to the understanding and management of this condition, potentially reducing its impact on computer-dependent populations and enhancing their overall well-being.
