ANS: C
Tendonitis is a common work-related musculoskeletal disorder arising from overuse. The number of repetitions during a specific time period should be monitored. A high-risk repetition rate for the elbow is more than 10 reps/minute. The occupational therapist will need to determine the rep-etition rate as well as the rest breaks and make recommendations according to the standards in the workplace.
