在国家耳聋中心，80名聋哑学生的口译员中有14人（18%）因上肢疼痛而寻求医疗护理;另外11人（14%）的症状不太严重或短暂。这些情况是由于反复使用而引起的，通过休息可以缓解。所有这些都是过度使用综合征。肌腱炎、筋膜炎、滑膜炎和神经卡压是最常见的。保守治疗（如物理治疗、夹板疗法、药物治疗）几乎没有价值或没有价值。只有休息缓解症状。手术指征很少。因此，最合理的治疗方法似乎是预防。避免疼痛的建议方法包括限制口译会话的持续时间，技术修改和阻力练习以增加耐力。
Fourteen of 80 interpreters (18%) for deaf students at a national center on deafness sought medical care for painful conditions of the upper extremity; 11 others (14%) had less severe or transient symptoms. The conditions were brought on by repetitive use and were relieved by rest. All represented overuse syndromes. Tendinitis, fasciitis, synovitis, and nerve entrapment were encountered most often. Conservative treatment (eg, physical therapy, splinting, medications) was of little or no value. Only rest relieved symptoms. Surgery was rarely indicated. The most reasonable approach to treatment would, therefore, seem to be prevention. Suggested methods for avoidance of pain include limiting the duration of interpreting sessions, technique modification, and resistance exercises to increase endurance.
