Resident Posture Biofeedback Study

While a majority of surgical ergonomic studies have been evaluating attending surgeons, few have evaluated surgical ergonomics within the surgical resident. Biofeedback devices can be partnered with education and geared towards surgical residents to decrease current and future musculoskeletal disorders, which may in turn lead to longer and more fulfilling careers.

Inclusion Criteria: * Surgical residents with surgical experience of at least one year (Postgraduate year 2-5) * Completing a one-month rotation at the study sites within the general surgery department during the study period Exclusion Criteria: * Clinically diagnosed inflammatory musculoskeletal disorders per self-report * History of orthopedic surgery in the last six months per self-report
