Researchers studied the work of nurses who help during heart surgeries to find out which tasks are hardest on their bodies. They found that cleaning surgical tools and helping with certain parts of the surgery are especially tough on the nurses' backs and necks. They suggest ways to make things easier for the nurses, like changing the workspace and giving special training.
