Ergonomics is a discipline that involves the study of human abilities and limitations in order to optimize and make people more efficient. Therefore, the ergonomic design mouse also aims to optimize the efficiency of human work. (Definition and Domains of Ergonomics, 2014)
Logitech Lift Vertical Ergonomic mouse has a Lift Yourself Up design - 57 degree vertical to bring your hands back to your natural posture and reduce pressure on the upper musculoskeletal system compared to using a regular mouse.
Effects of ergonomic design in medicine
Ergonomically designed mice were applied to the treatment program for upper limb disorders, bringing an 89% improvement after intervention from the medical program. Patients of a variety of ages and demographics, 56 people aged an average of 40 years (23-61) and 20 patients under the age of 35, all had symptoms associated with muscle pain (MPS) in the shoulder, neck and forearm areas. (Margit L. Bleecker, Mark A. Celio and Sheryl K. Barnes, 2011)
The study also concluded that the dissemination of knowledge and the application of ergonomics plus pain relief treatments is mandatory to do to thoroughly cure the disease.
