Portable X-Ray Machines

Have you dealt with injuries related to pushing portable cassettes under patients? Any suggestions for ergonomic solutions?

Vacutainer Lid Remover

This is a link to the website showing a video of the the vacutainer lid remover called the "PLUGGO Decapper".

I recomended it for a lab although I am not sure if they are ready to make an investment that large yet. It is supposed to remove 50 lids per minute. For high volume labs, this could be helpful to prevent hand pain.

Cover Slip Holders

I recently had an employee say that she was experiencing pain from holding microscope slide cover slips between her thumb and forefinger as well as from popping lids off of vacutainer vials. I have found a product that automates taking off vial tops but I haven't found anything that will help her pick up and hold cover slips. Any suggestions or ideas?
