    Having been up since 3 AM with a child, I can say the cost-benefit fluctuates wildly. Would love OP to indicate if they do not know the benefits and want to know, or if they know t…

    Ergonomics may seem not a big deal in that list of improvements, however it can make or break surgery technique and a surgeon's career. Many professions that rely on manual dexteri…
