Clinical Trial: Ergonomic Evaluation of Exoskeleton Use in Transoral, Endoscopic, and Transcervical ENT Surgery: A Single Site Non-blinded Study

U.S., Oct. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07855159) titled 'Ergonomic Evaluation of Exoskeleton Use in Transoral, Endoscopic, and Transcervical ENT Surgery: A Single Site Non-blinded Study' on Sept. 28.

Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to learn whether the use of an exoskeleton system can reduce musculoskeletal strain and fatigue during ENT surgical procedures in ENT surgeons performing transoral, endoscopic, and transcervical operations. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does the use of an exoskeleton reduce musculoskeletal strain and muscle activity (measured via sEMG and MVC) during surgery? Does the use of an exoskeleton reduce subjective pain and fatigue in...
