Evaluation of Ergonomic Risks and the Effect of Patient Education on Musculoskeletal Complaints, Posture and Breathing Awareness in Bank Employees
Sponsor: Uskudar University
Summary
This study aims to evaluate ergonomic risks among bank office employees and to investigate the effects of patient education and breathing exercises on musculoskeletal complaints, posture, ergonomic awareness and breathing awareness. Office workers often experience musculoskeletal problems due to prolonged sitting, poor posture and repetitive computer-based work. In this study, participants will be assessed using standardized questionnaires and ergonomic assessment methods before and after a eight-week intervention program. The intervention includes ergonomic education and breathing exercises delivered by a physiotherapist. The results of the study are expected to provide evidence on the effectiveness of ergonomic education and breathing exercises in improving musculoskeletal health and posture awareness among office workers.
