Description: A scientific publication that documents an evaluation tool for assessing MSD risk when medical professionals use digital tablets as part of their work. At the end of the article in Appendix A is a 29-question survey; each question is a Yes/No checkbox. Each “Yes” is considered good and each “No” is considered a target for potential improvement. The authors note there are 51 questions in the full survey, but only 29 appear in the publication.
