PURPOSE: To relate self-reported levels of @entity85 ( @entity85 ) @entity158 and patterns of clinical care among members of the @entity7452 ' Association (CDHA), using a web-based survey. METHODS: The 24-item survey consisted of questions on patterns of clinical care, health habits, experience with @entity4512 and demographic information. Recruitment information, including survey link and consent form, was emailed to the CDHA for distribution to its members. Descriptive analysis and cross tabulations were conducted using the online software program Qualtrics   . A Chi-square test determined statistical significant differences between the responses of the no/mild @entity158 and moderate/severe @entity158 groups. RESULTS: The response rate was 19% (500/2,700). Ninety-six percent of all respondents reported some level of @entity4512 , causing nearly 25% of the respondents to miss work. Respondents, who reported moderate/severe @entity158 , treated more @entity1 per day (p=0.007) and on average treated greater numbers of moderate to heavy @entity1608 @entity1 (p=0.017) than those respondents reporting no/mild @entity158 . Forty percent of the respondents in the moderate/severe group treated more than 8 @entity1 per day. A higher percentage of respondents (p=0.000) in the moderate/severe @entity158 group than in the no/mild group reported using proper posture less than 50% of treatment time. Using proper posture more than 50% of treatment time was more frequent in respondents who had practiced more than (p=0.012), compared with less than, 5 years. CONCLUSION: Workload and ergonomics are related to @entity4512 . Educational programs need to emphasize the importance of these factors in the development and reduction of @entity4512 .
