The purposes of this study are the ergonomic improvement and the evaluation on the work environment and methods when disabled workers on their wheelchairs operate the Visual Display Terminal (VDT), and pointing up the problems on the management for safety and health.In its first year, we conducted the questionnaire study for 36 disabled people who had trained work force in the prefectural rehabilitation center in order to grasp their works and health issues. Two-thirds of all had experience of the VDT work. Cerebral paralysis patients (n=11) complained weakness of their physical strength or muscles. Spinal-code-injury victims' (n=15) had high complaints rates of the decubitus and urination troubles. Low-back or back symptoms in cerebral paralysis patients and cerbicobrachial symptoms in spinal-code-injury victims were often complained.In its second year, we conducted the intervention study for some disabled workers operating the VDT to prevent musculoskeletal disorders and decubitus, and to improve the height of the desk and chair ergonomically. We tried adjusting the height of the desk and chair to each worker after problems were clarified by observing their work environment and working postures. They were evaluated by means of workers' subjectivity, the measurement of electromyography and the distribution of sitting pressure. It was pointed out that holding of the trunk by chair, proper dispersion of the sitting pressure, using footstool considered of their legs' residual function, and the height of desk were important for disabled people to conduct VDT works. We concluded that the working chair for disabled people should be developed.

本研究的目的是改善残疾人在轮椅上操作视屏显示终端时的工效学，评价其工作环境和工作方法，并指出安全卫生管理方面存在的问题。为了解县康复中心残疾人工作情况，对县康复中心36名残疾人进行了问卷调查和健康问题。三分之二的人有VDT工作经验。脑性瘫痪患者（n=11）抱怨他们的体力或肌肉无力。脊柱代码损伤患者（n=15）的褥疮和排尿困难的投诉率较高。在第二年，我们对一些操作VDT的残疾工人进行了干预研究，以预防肌肉骨骼疾病和褥疮，并改善桌椅的高度符合人体工程学。通过观察工作环境和工作姿势，弄清问题后，我们尝试调整桌椅的高度。通过作业者主观性、肌电图测量和坐位压力分布等方法进行评价。指出残疾人视屏显示终端作业时应注意座椅扶住躯干、适当分散坐姿压力、使用考虑腿部残余功能的脚凳、办公桌的高度等。我们的结论是，应开发残疾人工作椅。
