Effect of keyboard keyswitch design on hand pain.
Rempel D, Tittiranonda P, Burastero S, Hudes M, So Y. Rempel D, et al. J Occup Environ Med. 1999 Feb;41(2):111-9. doi: 10.1097/00043764-199902000-00006. J Occup Environ Med. 1999. PMID: 10029956 Clinical Trial.
Twenty computer users were matched and randomly assigned to keyboard A (n = 10) or B (n = 10). The keyboards were of conventional layout and differed in keyswitch design. ...We conclude that use of keyboard A for 12 weeks led to a reduction in hand pain and a …
