Ergonomics Month

In partnership with British Medical Ultrasound Society (BMUS), Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (SDMS) and Sonography Canada

To highlight the importance of ensuring safe ergonomic practices, ASA has joined forces with BMUS, SDMS, and Sonography Canada and will share resources throughout September for Ergonomics Month. We understand how crucial it is for sonographers to prevent work-related injuries. By being aware of proper techniques and making necessary adjustments, sonographers can significantly reduce injury rates, promoting a healthier and more sustainable career. Along with our world affiliates, ASA is prioritising safety and well-being in the workplace.

Shared resources include: 

• Journal Articles: Our curated collection of peer-reviewed articles will keep you at the forefront of the latest research in work-related injury and pain, and current ergonomic practice recommendations.
• Webinars: Join us virtually as experts share their insights. Refresh your expertise with in-depth presentations on how to prevent injury, the value of ergonomics in reducing work-related pain, and quick reference stretching guides.
• Other resources: Includes an Educational Video, Podcast, Guideline and Paper.
