If needed, place a back rest/support at the lower back.            * Use a stable work surface and stable (no bounce) keyboard tray.            * Center the monitor and the keyboard in front of you.            * Elevate the laptop off the desk, using a monitor stand in order for the top of the screen to be at eye level.            * Use an external keyboard and mouse that are positioned on a keyboard tray to ensure a neutral wrist position.            * Keep arms and elbows relaxed and close to your body.            * Elbows should be bent at 90-100 degrees.            * Keep wrist straight. Do not bend wrists up, down or to the sides.            * Use a softer touch on the keyboard (do not pound).            * Use a document holder or book stand, preferably in line with the computer screen to position resources.            * Try to decrease the glare on the screen. Use an optical glass anti-glare filter where needed.            * Take frequent short breaks. The general guideline is to take a 1-2 minute micro break every 10-15 minutes, or take a 5-10 minute mini-break every hour.Transporting your LaptopBe cautious when transporting your laptop and its components. If the total weight is 10 pounds or more, consider using a bag with wheels. If you want a smaller bag and can comfortable carry your laptop, consider a good backpack with a pelvic belt support.</blockquote>
