Musculoskeletal Disorders Hands-on guidance and tools for the
prevention of musculoskeletal injuries in the workplace In
Musculoskeletal Disorders: The Fatigue Failure Mechanism, a team of
accomplished occupational health experts delivers an essential and
incisive discussion of how musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) develop
and progress, as well as how they can be prevented and controlled.
Offering a novel, evidence-based approach to this costly problem,
the book has broad implications for employers, insurers, and other
stakeholders in workplace health and safety. The authors identify
new risk assessment approaches based on the cumulative effects of
exposure to highly variable loading conditions. These new
approaches can also be applied to evaluate the efficacy of job
rotation scenarios and to quantify exoskeleton efficacy. The
complexities associated with fatigue failure in biological
environments are also explored in addition to suggested models for
understanding how the body maintains musculoskeletal homeostasis.
Readers will also find: Thorough introductions to the material
properties of musculoskeletal tissues and the fundamental
principles of fatigue failure analysis In-depth explorations of the
structure and function of the musculoskeletal system and up-to-date
epidemiological research on MSDs Comprehensive discussions of
validated fatigue failure risk assessment methods, including
continuous exposure assessment to better quantify injury risk
Insightful treatments of remodeling and healing processes as they
apply to MSD risk, as well as factors that impair the healing
process, like stress, obesity, and aging Perfect for occupational
and environmental health and safety (OEHS) professionals,
Musculoskeletal Disorders: The Fatigue Failure Mechanism will also
earn a place in the libraries of ergonomists, physical therapists,
biomechanists, industrial hygienists, occupational physicians,
orthopedists, and musculoskeletal disorder researchers.
