A Fuzzy linguistic model for the prediction of carpal tunnel syndrome risks in an occupational environment / Pamela McCauley Bell and Lesia Crumpton

Sumario: This research presents the development and evaluation of a fuzzy linguistic model designated to predict the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in an occupational setting. CTS has become one of the largest problems facing ergonomists and the medical community because it is developing in epidemic proportions within the occupational environment. The results of this evaluation technique are compared with more traditional methods for assessing the presence of CTS
