Asked Questions -- Answered

Frequently Asked Questions.
Click-click-click-click – the sounds of typing are prominent
in many offices and homes. They are the sounds of persons working
at their computers, typing on their keyboards, and clicking their
mouses. Unfortunately, by simply listening to the click-clacking
sounds of the typists, you cannot tell which people are most at
risk for a typing injury.
Sure, you can guess that those typing the fastest and most continuously
(those with the most “clicks” per hour) are in greater
danger than those who are only leisurely clicking away and taking
breaks often. But the amount of typing done within a span of time
is not the only predictor of who will or will not get a typing injury…
Take a look at his or her workstation. Take a look at how the person
is sitting at the desk and typing.
Poor posture and bent wrists, among other factors, are precursors
to a typing injury like a repetitive strain injury (RSI). But you
need not blame this poor posture solely on the typist. Rather, the
height of the chair, work surface, and keyboard tray can be factors,
as can the placement of the mouse and the monitor. The angle of
the keyboard, the lack of a wrist pad, and other such factors can
also be causes of poor posture and therefore of typing injuries.
Stretching, taking breaks, keeping wrists neutral, and keeping
a good posture are all ways to prevent getting an RSI. But there
are other things that you can do, too, to help prevent and treat
RSI’s. We have set up this website to help you learn about
these things.
