Effects of Full Motion Forearm Supports and a Negative Slope Keyboarding Keyboard Support System on Hand-Wrist Posture While

The effects of full motion forearm supports and a negative slope keyboard support system on hand-wrist posture were tested. No differences in posture were found between normal use of a keyboard and that with full motion forearm supports. Use of the negative slope keyboard support system increased bo...

Use of the negative slope keyboard support system increased body-to-screen distance and reduced wrist extension so that the wrist was vertically neutral for keyboarding.
