The use of forearm and hand support is associated with less shoulder muscle activity and shoulder torsion while palm support is associated with less wrist extension. This type of support also results in lower applied forces to the mouse body. Participants reported less musculoskeletal discomfort when using a support.
It should be noted that some aspects addressed in this paper must also be looked at from the perspective of findings by other researchers presented in this overview of publications.

Have you ever thought about the ergonomics of your computer mouse? It’s a tool we use daily, but few of us stop to consider its impact on our health. Let’s
In the world of modern technology, the computer mouse is a ubiquitous tool, essential for daily operations across the globe. However, not all mice are created equal, and the quest
This study addresses finger joint morphology and the effect on finger joints. The data addresses the use of finger joints while handling PC mice, especially flexing and extending the fingers.
Let’s talk about possible relevance for computer aided learning. Highly intense use of the finger, while handling the computer mouse, as in e-learning, may lead to hand- or finger complaints,
