Recenzii
"… provides an extensive and comprehensive description of the evidence-based MAPO INDEX that will allow not only trained ergonomists and biomechanists the ability to conduct a thorough patient handling risk assessment but many and varied healthcare professionals as well. … the level of detail found in the text facilitates intervention implementation and maintenance successes."
—Mary W. Matz MSPH, CPE, CSPHP, Patient Care Ergonomic Solutions, LLC
"The main strength of this book is its comprehensiveness in addressing the important problem of injuries suffered by health care workers due to manual patient handling. … much more than a list of recommendations for safe patient handling but instead presents a system that any health care facility or institution can use to systematically assess their facilities and practices for patient handling and design improved systems for such activity."
—Robert R. Fox Ph.D., CPE, Chair, US TAG to ISO TC159/SC3 Anthropometry and Biomechanics
"… excellent, crisply written … practical and accessible … This is a really useful, meticulously detailed handbook for all those involved in the manual handling of people, with the overall purpose of reducing the number of MSDs among careers."
— The RoSPA Occupational Safety & Health Journal, January 2015
"I found it easy to use, comprehensive, consistent and solution-focused and in my view its application deserves the attention of policymakers."

Descriere
This book is a practical guide to the analysis of patient handling risk using the MAPO method in different areas of healthcare. It includes special chapters devoted to procedures to define specific preventive plans and procedures. It shows how to perform a task of patient handling and provides all of the needed information (how to evaluate the patient, such as what type of lifting aides are appropriate, how to use them, etc...) to reduce biomechanical overload risk.
