Due to the rising popularity of Dental Operating Microscopes, the issue of their ergonomic use has become an important topic. To verify its impact on dental teams' ergonomics, the aspect of working in two distinct environments was examined. The research was performed on a group of 82 dentists regarding the number and character of shifts from the microscopic environment to the macroscopic one. The results revealed the shifts constitute a significant part of an inexperienced DOM operator's work. Because such shifts, when performed repeatedly and in short succession, may influence the operator's vision and comfort, they should be considered ergonomically detrimental. Having indicated the problem, the article puts forth a solution in the form of an instrument transfer methodology. The proposed adjustment has the potential of improving the quality of work for DOM operators quickly and efficiently by significantly reducing the number of shifts between the environments.
由于牙科手术显微镜越来越受欢迎，其符合人体工程学的使用问题已成为一个重要议题。为了验证其对牙科团队人体工程学的影响，研究考察了在两种不同环境中工作的方面。该研究针对 82 名牙医进行，涉及从微观环境到宏观环境的轮班次数和性质。研究结果表明，这些轮班是缺乏经验的手术显微镜操作者工作的重要组成部分。因为这种反复且连续的轮班可能会影响操作者的视力和舒适度，所以从人体工程学的角度来看，它们是有害的。本文指出了这个问题，并提出了一种仪器传递方法作为解决方案。所提出的调整有可能通过显著减少环境之间的轮班次数，快速有效地提高手术显微镜操作者的工作质量。
