Purpose:
Diagnostic medical sonographers and sonologists use ultrasounds to create sonographic images for patient diagnosis. However, repetitive tasks and awkward postures during scanning can lead to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). This course provides strategies and best practices to limit MSD risk in sonography.
Key Features:
- Learn ergonomic techniques and safe work practices specific to sonography.
- Understand the types of MSDs that commonly affect sonographers.
- Apply practical strategies to reduce injury risk during scanning procedures.
Student Access:
- All OSHA Center students have free access to course materials, including knowledge checks and interactive activities.
- Certificates and transcripts are available through a certificate package purchase, documenting exam scores and course completion.
