Cumulative trauma disorders (CTD) refer to a category of physical signs and symptoms due to chronic musculoskeletal injuries where the antecedents appear to be related to some aspect of repetitive work which can be found commonly in modern industries. This paper describes impacts of CTD on modern industry and summarizes recent resent research efforts and suggests an ergonomic program to prevent incident of CTD in hand-intensive industry.

작업과 관련된 근골격계 장애(work-related musculoskeletal disorder)는 만성적인 근골격계 질병으로 작업과 관계되어 발생되어지는 신체 상태이다. 이와 관련되는 요인에는 반복적인 동작, 무리한 힘, 부적절한 자세, 기계적인 스트레스 및 진동, 온도 등이며 같은 의미로 자주 사용되는 용어로는 인간공학적 질병(ergonomic disorder), 누적 외상성 장애(cumulative trauma disorders), 반복 긴장성 부상(repetitive strain injuries)등이 있다. (중략)

It is difficult to estimate the effective factors upon Cumulative Trauma Disorders in real workplace because those are developed by combination of various risk factors for time. The purpose of this paper was to evaluate relative level of CTDs risk factors such as task-related factors, anthropometric factors, joint deviation factors and personal factors using fuzzy linear regression models. And the models are built corresponding to each category with the survey data from telephone operators. The coefficient of fuzzy models are described as the relative level of variable to present risk factors upon CTDs.

누적외상성질환(Cumulative Trauma Disorders)의 발병 위험요인을 찾아내기 위한 기법의 하나로 체크 리스트가 활용된다. 이미 외국에서는 누적외상성질환의 예방을 위한 체크리스트 관련 연구가 상당히 진 척되었다. 체크리스트를 이용하여 누적외상질환의 위험요인을 발견하고 이에 대한 예방 대책을 세우기 위한 일환으로서, 본 연구에서는 우리 나라 제조업 현장의 누적외상성질환 예방을 위한 체크리스트의 개발 및 이의 과정, 목적과 활용에 대하여 연구하였으며, 앞으로 제조업 현장에서 활용이 가능한 체크리스트를 개발하였다.

과학기술 분야의 시민참여의 필요성과 정당성은 이미 충분히 인정되고 있다. 이에 따라서 여러 국가에서 이를 제도화하고 있으며 많은 STS학자들은 이를 대상으로 연구를 진행하고 있다. 그러나 최근 들어 비제도화된 시민참여 혹은 사회운동적 성격을 지닌 시민참여에 대한 관심이 부각되고 있다. 이는 그동안 진행된 제도화된 시민참여에 초점을 맞춘 연구들이 포괄하지 못한 것으로서 시민참여의 다양한 양상과 역동성을 보여주고 있다. 이 연구는 비제도화된 시민참여와 이와 유사한 문제의식을 나타내고 있는 '수행되지 않은 과학(Undone Science)' 등에 대한 이론적 논의를 간략하게 정리하고, 이를 통해서 살펴볼 수 있는 한국의 2가지 사례를 구체적으로 분석해볼 것이다. 첫 번째 사례는 '환경보건' 분야로서, 이 분야는 한국에서 2000년대 초에 본격적으로 정책 연구의제로 등장하였고 이어서 법제도화 되었다. 두 번째 사례는 산업보건 분야에서 2000년대 초부터 크게 쟁점화 되었던 '근골격계 직업병' 문제이다. 우리는 이 두 사례를 통해서 시민사회 노동조합이 '환경보건'과 근골격계 직업병' 문제를 제기하면서 어떻게 이 문제들을 정부의 정책 연구 의제로 만들었는가를 살펴보게 될 것이다. 이는 한국에서 비제도화된 시민참여 혹은 '수행되지 않은 과학' 하기가 어떤 식으로 나타나고 있는지를 보여줄 것이다.

Cumulative trauma disorders(CTDs) have been a growing problems for US and European industries with higher incidence rate every year. The increase and their associated costs has led companies to form committes and implement programs to address this problem. In our country, we have just started to recognize and to work on the problems in industry. This study conducted an ergonomic analysis for typical jobs of ship building industry which was not usually surveyed for CTD problem. A baseline CTD checklist which was supposed to do a risk assessment was developed and applied in this study. Initially, we considered five major parts in the checklist which consisted of personal, frequency, posture, force, and miscellaneous information. Most jobs in ship building industry were much different from typical assembly work and VDT work that have been major part of the previous CTD studies. Specifically, job characteristics in terms of frequency and posture were quite different. There were relatively long cycle time, awkward postures for whole body (not just for upper extremities). Also, CTD risk scores based on checklist were a lot higher than the scores for VDT jobs which was a case of preceding application of the checklist. Specifically, grinding jobs turned out to be the most risky one in terms of CTDs. In conclusion, usual CTD prevention guidelines are not likely to he effective in this type of industry. An individual job based interventions are strongly suggested to have a good control of CTD problems in ship building industry.

The objectives of this study was to investiage the effects of sitting posture on carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) continues to be one of the most widely publicized maladies of the cumulative trauma disorder. Many studies have reported a positive association between CTS and highly repetitive work, high force, and poor posture. High force and repetitive work have especially been associated with CTS, but the evidence for work being a primary cause of CTS is strongest when these factors are combined. In addition to carpal tunnel syndrome, hand, wrist, and other disorders are attributed to these work-related movements. Such disorders are referred to as repetitive stress injuries, cumulative trauma disorder, overuse syndromes, and chronic upper limb pain syndrome. Incorrect posture also may play a role in the development of CTS in people who work at a computer and other types of keyboards. The tendency to roll the shoulders forward, round the lower back, and thrust the chin forward can shorten the neck and shoulder muscles, compressing nerves in the neck. This, in turn, can affect the wrist, fingers, and hand. The treatment and prevention of carpal tunnel syndrome continue to be approached with a segmental view of the human body. For example, the most common ergonomic solution for carpal tunnel syndrome associated with keyboard use is to keep the wrists in a neutral position by using a wrist rest in front of the keyboard and good sitting posture.

최근 들어 작업강도가 심화, 노동환경의 변화 등으로 단순반복작업자의 누적외상장애가 많이 발생하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구는 단순반복작업자의 근피로도를 분석하기 위하여 수작업과 Air Balance 시스템 설계장치를 이용할 때 각 근육의 피로도의 차이를 밝히고 단순반복작업의 기계에 의한 시스템설계제안을 목적하였다. 연구 결과, 내화벽돌 적재작업시에 수작업과 Air Balance 시스템을 이용한 근피로도 비교에서 Air Balance를 이용한 적재작업에서는 수작업 대비 근육별 AEMG 64.1%, MF 65.3%, MPF 64.3%, ZCR 63.6%로 근피로도가 낮게 나타났다. 근육의 동원정도는 전체적으로 비슷한 천이를 보였다. 즉, Aire Balance시스템을 사용하는 것이 수작업보다 근피로도 값은 낮게 나타났으며, 누적외상성 질환에 대한 노출도 작은 것으로 나타났다.

Occupational cumulative traumas (CTDs) are becoming one of leading ailments in industrialized worl $d^{(1.2)}$. The degree of muscle fatigue is important parameter to understand cause of occupational cumulative trauma disorders. To quantify degree of muscle fatigue, muscle EMG activity was measured during isometric and dynamic contractions(repetitive concentric/eccentric muscle contraction) and its analyzed data, such as RMS, median frequency, and median power were compared when the muscle was fresh and exhausted. When muscle become fatigue, it was observed that median frequency decreased and median power and RMS increased However, based on overall prolonged observation, median frequency increased and median power and RMS decreased. Therefore it was concluded that shifting patterns of RMS, median frequency, and median power values can be used as parameter to evaluate degree of muscle fatigue even in dynamic muscle contraction.

When picking up cargo, workers manually load and unload the cargo. Workers have different intensity of work depending on the amount and weight of cargo. In particular, as the intensity of manual work increases, workers are exposed to cumulative traumatic diseases. A manual for picking safety work for workers cargo handling in the distribution center is required. In this study, the worker's picking safety work based on the cargo volume and weight was presented as an experimental design model. Like the research results, the disease begins when the worker feels the number of pains presented by the model.
