THE IMPACT OF MOBILE TOUCH SCREEN DEVICE USE ON MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM: A LITERATURE REVIEW
Öz
People using mobile touch
screen devices (MTSDs) have been exposed to the musculoskeletal disorder
because of physical risk factors. As being lightweight; the latest generations
of MTSDs are preferred for personal and work purposes as they are comfortable to
operate and easy to carry. Furthermore, they have many advantageous facilities
compared to conventional devices. This study aims to survey previous researches
on the effects of MTSDs use on the musculoskeletal disorder. In this scope;
published researches on musculoskeletal disorders, postural problems, and
kinematic activities at upper extremities among people who use mobile phones or
tablets for daily use are investigated. The articles reviewed were cited based
on the research made from Web of Science, Scopus, ProQuest, Elsevier Science
Direct, and Google Scholar. The method selected in this study was to review
published studies from January 2010 to December 2019 on occurrence of
discomfort symptoms in different positions of the body parts and muscular
activities in upper extremities among people who use MTSDs.
