El estudio fue aprobado por el Comité de Ética en Investigación. Resultados: Se recogieron un total de 412 respuestas individuales, 23 personas no informaron dolor, 155 personas informaron dolor de cuello y 234 informaron dolor lumbar. Síntomas provocados por variables como lumbalgia y cervicalgia, como ser mujer y permanecer en posición sentada con el cuello postrado frente a las pantallas, así como sus efectos en las actividades realizadas.
