Comparison of Reaction Response Time between Hand and Foot Controlled Devices in Simulated Microsurgical Testing

Purpose. We hypothesized that reaction times (RTs) for a switch release are faster for hand-controlled than for foot-controlled switches for physiological and anatomical reasons (e.g., nerve conduction speed). The risk of accidental trauma could be reduced if the surgeon reacted quicker and therefor...
