Ergonomic Modification
for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Modifying workstation setup, keyboard position, and tool grip to maintain neutral wrist posture reduces the mechanical stress that drives CTS, particularly for keyboard workers.
How it works
Reduces sustained or repetitive wrist flexion/extension that increases carpal tunnel pressure. Ergonomic keyboards, mouse design, and workstation height adjustments maintain neutral wrist posture.
What to watch for
Ergonomic changes address the cause but do not reverse existing nerve compression. Most effective as prevention and early intervention. Vertical mouse, split keyboard, and wrist rest can reduce carpal tunnel pressure.
