After reading this study, the participant should be able to: 1. Recognize the primary physical and mental risks faced by the practicing plastic surgeon. 2. State the primary risk factors for cervical spine disease and back pain. 3. State the critical steps for protection from ionizing and nonionizing radiation. 4. List the characteristics of a surgeon exhibiting signs of burnout. 5. Develop a plan for mitigating personal risk of musculoskeletal, exposure, and other injuries.
Health care workers are exposed to significant occupational hazards, and have a risk of injury similar to that of construction, mining, and manufacturing employees. Plastic surgeons must have a clear understanding of the types of risks they face and the techniques for mitigating them. Exposure to some risks is attributable to unavoidable occupational conditions, but others can be avoided completely. The sources of injury risk from musculoskeletal, exposure, and other causes are discussed in this article, and evidence-based recommendations to ameliorate these risks are presented.
阅读本研究后，参与者应能够：1. 认识到执业整形医师面临的主要身心风险。2. 说明颈椎病和背痛的主要危险因素。3. 说明防止电离和非电离辐射的关键步骤。4. 列出表现出倦怠迹象的外科医生的特征。5. 制定减轻肌肉骨骼、暴露和其他伤害个人风险的计划。
医疗保健工作者面临着重大的职业危害，其受伤风险与建筑、采矿和制造业员工相似。整形医师必须清楚地了解他们面临的风险类型以及减轻这些风险的技术。某些风险的暴露归因于不可避免的职业条件，但其他风险则可以完全避免。本文讨论了肌肉骨骼、暴露和其他原因造成的伤害风险源，并提出了减轻这些风险的循证建议。
