Case Study 1

Fujikura Ltd.: Combating ‘Sitting Disease’

Product ImplementationResults
• WorkFit™ Sit-Stand Solutions from Ergotron
• Dual Monitor Workstations
• Neo-Flex® Notebook Lift Stand
• Underdesk Keyboard Arm
• 18% increase in employee productivity and work efficiency
• Impoved health outcomes — less mental fatigue, physical and visual discomfort
• Enhanced office communication
• Increased interest in ergonomic solutions across departments

Within a traditional office setup, Fujikura Ltd. a global, Tokyo-based electrical equipment manufacturing company lets employees sit for 8 hours a day during work, which gradually puts them at risk of developing ‘sitting disease’. 

The company’s health management team has recognized the harmful effects of sitting for long periods — including fatigue, reduced energy, loss of muscle mass, and vision issues.

To prevent this from recurring, the department is experimenting with ergonomic products through WorkFit™ Sit-Stand Solutions from Ergotron – resulting in up to an 18% increase in employee productivity and work efficiency.

They also explored Dual Monitor Workstations that can be attached to the side or back of existing desks — perfectly fit for compact Japanese offices.

In addition, they installed Neo-Flex® Notebook Lift Stand and Underdesk Keyboard Arm for better productivity, less fatigue, and to help employees work more comfortably by positioning monitors at eye level.

Unexpectedly, this not only improved health and productivity, but also enhanced office communication — enabling employees to talk to distant co-workers and shortening meeting durations for better efficiency.

Workplace improvements using ergonomics caught the eye of other departments, leaving them curious about the so-called futuristic standing desks and encouraging them to adopt the standing workstyle on-site. Learn more from the case study here!

Case Study 2

Catholic Children’s Hospital Wilhelmstift: Maximizing Efficiency with Ergonomic Medical Carts

Benefits of StyleView® 42 Medical CartResults
• Easy mobility
• Height adjustability
• Sit-stand flexibility
• Compatibility with EHR systems
• Improved patient documentation efficiency
• Enhanced ergonomics for healthcare workers
• Reduced physical strain and potential injuries
• Increased compliance with GDPR rules

In a fast-paced healthcare industry, managing patient flow and health records in an efficient way is critical, especially in The Catholic Children’s Hospital Wilhelmstift, one of the largest hospitals in Hamburg, Germany.

To ensure fast and simple patient documentation, they needed easy-to-use mobile medical carts that were compatible with their EHR system, standard thin client, and could hold paper or a notepad — as permanent workstations weren’t suitable for the entire hospital facility.

After 6 months of testing various solutions, they chose the StyleView® 42 Medical Cart from Ergotron for its easy mobility, height adjustability, and sit-stand flexibility — which is reliable for a big hospital with 11 specialty departments and 23 medical areas.

Ergotron’s StyleView® 42 Medical Cart is easy to learn and use, which works for both right- and left-hand users. It can also be fitted with extra drawers to carry more supplies and combination lock to secure files in compliance with GDPR rules.

These mobile carts ensure ease of use as they operate similarly to fixed desks, which healthcare workers appreciate. In addition, mobile carts also support the prevention of back pain, neck pain, and other physical issues.

“This is especially important for the nurses, doctors and other users, so they don’t have to adapt to a new application,” said Bettina Stöterau, Digitalization Office, Catholic Children’s Hospital Wilhelmstift.

Satisfied with the results, now the hospital maintains close communication with Ergotron to adapt their equipment aligned with patient needs and the latest digital trends. Explore why medical carts are a must and check out hundreds of Ergotron’s wide selection here!
