Description
Shivangi Yadav and Chiranji Lal Goel present a 2025 audit of workstation ergonomics in radiology departments. Radiologists spend long hours at screens, and surveys report high rates of muscle and joint disorders plus eye strain. The audit checked whether reporting workstations met the national college's ergonomic standards.
Staff at two hospital sites answered a questionnaire in two cycles, 25 replies in 2023 and 21 in 2024. The questions followed the Royal College of Radiologists guidance on correct workstation use. Between cycles, targeted fixes were applied to the setups. The closed-loop design then measured whether compliance improved. The report shows how a simple repeat audit can lift staff wellbeing. Better setups also guard diagnostic accuracy during long reporting sessions.
