Reduced Slow-Wave Sleep Replicated in Children to State Definitive Risk

Ajeet Kumar

Certain conditions, including asymmetrical sustained posture of the lower extremities and holding a posture for more than one minute, might be higher contributing factors to postural risks, as well as using a tablet versus a laptop which might result in more sustained neck flexion. More recent evidence also suggests increase in neck symptoms being related to television, phone and tablet use, and visual symptoms related to increased use of phones and tablets in particular. Furthermore, more generally in terms of mobile device use, parents, educators and young people should be aware of how to identify postural risks.
