Objectives. The aim of this study was to compare the musculoskeletal and physical strain on healthcare workers, by measuring range of motion (ROM), muscle activity, and heart rate (HR), during transfer of a simulated patient using either a robotic wheelchair (RWC) or a conventional wheelchair (CWC). Methods. The subjects were 10 females who had work experience in transferring patients and another female adult as the simulated patient to be transferred from bed to a RWC or a CWC. In both experimental conditions, ROM, muscle activity, and HR were assessed in the subjects using motion sensors, electromyography, and electrocardiograms. Results. Peak ROM of shoulder flexion during assistive transfer with the RWC was significantly lower than that with the CWC. Values for back muscle activity during transfer were lower with the RWC than with the CWC. Conclusions. The findings suggest that the RWC may decrease workplace injuries and lower back pain in healthcare workers.
目的。本研究旨在通过测量模拟患者使用机器人轮椅（RWC）或传统轮椅（CWC）转移时的运动范围（ROM）、肌肉活动和心率（HR），比较医护人员的肌肉骨骼和身体劳损。方法。受试者为 10 名有转移患者经验的女性和另一名成年女性作为模拟患者，从床上转移到 RWC 或 CWC。在这两种实验条件下，使用运动传感器、肌电图和心电图评估受试者的 ROM、肌肉活动和 HR。结果。使用 RWC 辅助转移时，肩部前屈的最大 ROM 明显低于使用 CWC 时。使用 RWC 转移时背部肌肉活动的数值低于 CWC。结论。研究结果表明，RWC 可能会降低医护人员的工作场所受伤和腰痛的风险。
