6명의 20대 여성을 대상으로 VDT작업으로 인한 조절반응 및 동공대광반사의 작업부과에 따른 변화와 다른 사무작업을 부과할 때와의 차이를 보았다. 그 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. VDT작업에서 작업부과 시간이 증가함에 따라 조절 수축속도가 감소했으며 1시간의 휴식시간 후에는 현저하게 증가했고 다시 작업을 부과함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 조절 수축속도의 변화보다는 뚜렷하지 않지만 이완속도도 VDT작업부과에 따라 감소되고 휴식에 의한 회복되는 경향을 보였다. 2. 일반 사무작업과 근거리 사무작업에서는 조절 수축속도에서 VDT작업부과때와 같은 반응은 보이지 않았으며, 근거리 사무작업에서 이완속도가 작업부과에 따라 감소하였으나 휴식 후 회복되지 않았다. 3. 동공대광반사에서 최초동공직경, 최초동공면적은 VDT작업에서만 작업시간의 증가에 따라 유의한 감소를 보였는데 휴식 후 회복되지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 조절 수축속도의 변화, 조절 이완속도, 동공직경과 면적의 변화가 VDT작업의 특성을 연구하는데 사용될 가능성을 보여주며, 이를 위해서 연구대상이 개인차, 생체리듬, 감정적 자극 등을 보정한 연구가 필요하다고 생각된다.

Objects : This study is to be applied effectively to the acupuncture treatment for VDT syndrome. Methods : I referred to occidental and oriental medical records. Results and Conclusion : VDT syndrom is the concept focalizing work environment and labor load, and named all that symptoms according to excessive VDT works. The disorders of VDT syndrome is divided into 2 groups with muscaloskeletal disorders and non-musculoskeletal disorders, and non-musculoskeletal disorders is secondly divided into 3 groups with visual disorders, stress disorders and others. The risk factor of VDT syndrome is divided 4 groups with repetitive acts, consistent works, uncomfortable work postures, unprofitable light environments, jobs needs for excessive power and mental or physical fatigues. In oriental medicine area, I apply VDT syndrome to Kyunbitong(jianbeitong, 肩臂痛) to base on similarities of the risk factors and disorders between VDT syndrome and Kyunbitong(jianbeitong, 肩臂痛), that is painful illness on shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. And, Kyunbitong(jianbeitong, 肩臂痛) is divided 3 groups into Susamuhm(shousanyin, 手三陰), Susamyang(shousanyang, 手三陽) and Joktaeyang(zutaiyang, 足太陽) on the ground of meridian. Disorders related to Kyunbitong(jianbeitong, 肩臂痛) is grounded on kyungmaek(Jingmai, 經脈) disorder called sidongbyung(shidongbing, 是動病) and sosaengbyung(suoshengbing, 所生病) and Kyungkeun(Jingjin,經筋) disorder related to Kyunbitong(jianbeitong, 肩臂痛). As a result of this study, there is many similarities between VDT syndrome and Kyunbitong (jianbeitong, 肩臂痛). On acupuncture treatment, VDT syndrome can be applied to Kyunbitong(jianbeitong, 肩臂痛)'s on the basis of meridians, because of similarities of risk factors and disorders between VDT syndrome and Kyunbitong(jienbeitong, 肩臂痛).

These days the use of personal computer has become generalized at factory, office, house, etc and this fact indicates that visual display terminal work became popular in every field of our society. The use of computer improves work efficiency, productivity & qualify but in addition, it also generated the physical and mental diseases or defects so called VDT syndrome to workers. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the computer-work-related anti-physical, anti-psychogenic symptoms & side effects through the data drawn from workers who use computers on their works, and to find out methods of improvement & humanization of computer works. The follows are the results of questions about personal sensibility of VDT syndrome. 1. Female workers are more sensitive to the side effects of computer labor than males. 2. Workers aged twenties feel more severe symptoms of VDT syndrome than thirties or fourties, but there are no level of significance. 3. Middle managements workers are the most sensitive group to VDT syndrome, on the other hand tow managements are less sensitive than operators. 4. The result of questions indicates that a phone conductress show more severe VDT syndrome symptoms than business affairs or an engineer workers, with level of significance. 5. The longer computer work engagement period, the more evident VDT syndrome symptoms appear. For instance, workers who have more than 2 year engagement period complain more severe symptoms, compared workers who have less than 2 year engagement period. 6. Long computer working time per day also increases VDT syndrome severity specially people who have more than 2 hours in working time in a day have much less severe symptoms, compared people whose daily working time exceeds 2 hours. 7. Specific body part which shows VDT syndrome symptoms is shoulder, wrist, neck, finger, eye, waist, arm in the order of severity. 8. Sensibility of VDT syndrome symptoms have effect on degree of vocational satisfaction.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors of MSDs for the types of office work. Background: Physical risk factors of VDT(Video Display Terminal) associated with shoulder and neck musculoskeletal disorders(MSDs) include static work postures and workstation status. Method: In this study, office work was divided into data search, data entry and design work(drawings, etc.), and then we were surveyed 7 major work places which was included these works. We recorded working postures and obtained still images, depending on the types of office work. Then, RULA(Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) and ROSA(Rapid Office Strain Assessment) were used to analysis the risk factors. Results: The results of RULA showed that design work was under risk levels and required change, but ROSA showed that data entry and design work were high risk. The RULA is to evaluate the level of risk factors based on the working posture; on the other hand, the ROSA is to consider the use of peripheral, same as chair, keyboard/mouse, monitor and computer workstations. Conclusion: Conclusions of this study, the office work is necessary to identify the risk factors caused by the use of peripheral, as well as working posture.

본 연구에서는 경호경비현장에서 이루어지고 있는 실제적인 경호경비원들의 경계근무와 CCTV 모니터링 요원들의 스트레스를 확인하고, 비교 평가하기 위해 심박동변이(heart rate variability)를 통하여 생체리듬의 변화를 관찰하였다. K대학교 경호학과 학생 9명을 대상으로 실제 근무와 유사한 환경에서 경계근무와 CCTV 모니터링근무를 150분간 실시하였다. 30분 간격으로 자율신경검사를 관찰한 결과 HRT는 모니터링 근무가 경계근무 보다 더 낮게 나타났으며, 안정시, 근무 30분과 60분보다 90분, 120분, 150분은 낮게 나타났다. SDNN은 모니터링 근무가 더 높게 나타났으며, 근무 30분과 60분 보다 근무 150분에서 더 낮게 나타났다. 자율신경검사에서는 TP는 근무형태에 따른 집단 간 차이는 나타나지 않았으며, 근무 30분 보다 근무 150분에 더 높은 시기적 차이를 보였다. 근무형태와 근무시간의 상호작용은 나타났다. LF는 근무 60분 보다 근무 150분에 높은 시기간의 차이를 보였다. HF는 모니터링 근무 집단에 높게 나타났으며, 근무 30분 보다 근무 120분과 150분에서 더 높게 나타났다. 근무형태와 근무시간의 상호작용도 나타났다. LF/HF ratio는 경계근무 집단이 더 높게 나타났으며, 시기 간에 차이와 함께 근무형태와 근무시간의 상호작용도 나타났다. 모니터링 근무가 경계근무보다 부교감신경활동이 더 활발함에 따라 더 낮은 심기능 활동을 보였다. 매일 반복되는 장기간의 모니터링 근무는 VDT증후군이나 신경피로에 노출될 가능성이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: Many kinds of musculoskeletal disease and symptom are caused by the longtime computer works. However, trapezius muscle tonus has not been established in regarding to keyboard height during typing. Therefore, this study is to evaluate the relationship between trapezius muscle tonus and the height of keyboard while typing, controling for the postures of neck, Lumbar, cervical vertebra. Methods: The experimental height of keyboard was set at elbow height, 3cm higher, 6cm higher, 9cm higher, than elbow. We studied trapezius tonus with the mean value for 2 minutes by EMG in 15 males and 15 females worker of hospital in seoul, who did not have a history of muscle disease, neurological signs, nerve damage. Results: In this experimental, as the height of the keyboard went up, the trapezius tonus significantly increased with shoulder abduction of brachium. Second, right and left trapezius tonus appeared similar while typing. Third, the best height that release the trapezius tonus the was as high as elbow and 3cm higher than elbow. Conclusion: With these above results, we suggest that the appropriate height of keyboard during typing to release the trapezius tonus most is the height of the elbow and 3cm higher than elbow. The study has important implications for focusing on the height of VDT worktable and complaining of a pain by oneself which are useful to establish a method of prevention of musculoskeletal disorder in work in the future.
