Item Los movimientos repetitivos y su incidencia en los trastornos óseo-musculares de los usuarios de pantalla de visualización de datos (PVD) en áreas administrativas de la Universidad Tecnológica Indoamérica(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería en Sistemas, Electrónica e Industrial. Dirección de Posgrado. Maestría en Seguridad e Higiene Industrial y Ambiental, 2017) Cruz Salazar, Héctor Rodrigo; Rivera Escobar, Mario FernandoEXECUTIVE SUMMARY The present research work was born from the need to identify the musculoskeletal discomfort of users of data visualization screens (PVD) of the administrative area of the University Technological Indoamérica, who, by adopting forced postures and performing repetitive movements in their activities Suffer from discomfort in bones, joints and muscles. For the evaluation, the RULA method (rapid assessment of upper extremities) was taken as a reference and with the results knowing if corrective measures are necessary. As a second evaluation tool, we used the Nordic Questionnaire, which was applied to the 16 users. Relevant and reliable results of the ergonomic evaluation were obtained which require a more detailed estimate and possibly some changes, which were compared with the standards, establishing final results according to the application of the RULA method and the application of the Nordic questionnaire. They concluded with the proposal of a program of follow-up of the health of the users that we put to consideration before the executives of the Institution. Finally, it should be mentioned that according to the evaluations and analysis of results, the administrative user against the PVD must be trained by the appropriate personnel to acquire discipline in their positions and movements while performing their tasks.
