摘要

本文探讨了与长时间使用视频显示终端(VDT)相关的潜在负面身体影响的性别差异。在这项横断面调查中,我们向加拿大安大略省奥沙瓦市的278名安大略省大学学生(男性95名,女性183名,年龄在17-32岁之间)分发了自我报告的健康问卷和北欧肌肉骨骼问卷(NMQ)。结果显示,女生(64.1%)较男生(45.7%)更容易感到颈部/肩部/手部及手腕的疼痛/不适。与男学生相比,女学生的疼痛部位也有所不同。本研究提供了初步证据,表明与男生相比,uit女生接触vdt对健康的负面影响更大。这项研究将有助于促进对千禧一代进行更有针对性的干预,并帮助他们减少在使用带vdt的设备时可能遇到的疼痛/不适。

Exposure to Video Display Terminals and Associated Neuromuscular Pain and Discomfort in Male and Female Undergraduate University Students
This paper explores the gender differences with respect to potential negative physical effects associated with prolonged Video Display Terminal (VDT) use. In this cross-sectional survey, we distributed self- reported health questionnaire along with the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ) to 278 University of Ontario students (95 males and 183 females, aged between 17-32 years) in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. Results showed that female students suffered more pain/discomfort in the neck/shoulder/hand and wrist (64.1%) in comparison to males (45.7%). Location of pain was also different in female students when compared to male students. This study provides preliminary evidence to suggest that female UOIT students experienced increased negative health effects on exposure to VDTs in comparison to male students. This study will help facilitate more targeted interventions towards millennials and assist them in reducing pain/discomfort they may experience when using devices with VDTs.
