This mouse puts the forearm in the preferred posture and takes away all contact stress to the wrist. However, movement of the mouse transfers to the shoulder muscles which can cause shoulder fatigue or spasm when getting used to this mouse. Clicks are all done with the thumb.

This mouse puts the forearm in its preferred posture and takes contact stress off the wrist. Three button design with scroll wheel makes this a preferred choice with drafters, graphic artists, and MS Excel jockeys. Mouse comes in various sizes and in left-handed orientations as well.

This keyboard is an inexpensive split keyboard. We like the built-in palm rest although it's not padded. Generally comparable to Microsoft type split keyboards.

Gel palm rests are preferred over using foam or having the wrists on a hard surface of a desk. They can improve wrist posture, but can still lead to problems if they are over used especially if the cushion is more on the boney part of the wrist and not the palm.

We like this keyboard for it's adjustability and for it's quietness (court reporters love this feature!). Arrow keys, etc. are on the left which increases adjustment time, but can be beneficial for those with right hand dominant key needs. Lack of a ten key allows the mouse to be closer. The lack of integrated palm rests is something to be considered before purchasing though.

The Solution Platform has a great mechanism on it- easy to set turn knob tilt adjustment, low profile to all but eliminate knee knocks, and very stable. The 30 inch wide tray is great if needing multiple peripherals close by. The mechanism and slide attachment are all one piece, which makes installation a little harder than some others and when max tilted a standard mouse will ten to fall off the backside (a sticky clip is included to corral it though - we usually attach to teh underside of teh desk,but putting it on the tray itself is also an option.) Another note: always look and measure the underside of the desk to make sure which length of arm to get.

This is an excellent, inexpensive mouse device to alleviate side-to-side wrist motion and get the wrist off the desk surface. It relies on finger motions vs. the wrist to move the cursor. Some prefer using the control panel to move the primary mouse click to ring finger vs. the thumb. Can be used in either in right or left hand.

This mouse supports the hand off the desk surface protecting the wrist as well as taking away the side-to-side motion of the wrist. Buttons are used by the fingers with cursor control on the thumb. Thumb control of the cursor is a downside for most people as a risk of thumb overuse exists. This is OK for some, but thumbs are super-important in most people's lives.

Maxim's have been a defacto standard among ergnomic split keyboards. Range of adjustability, removable wristrests that follow the angle of the keyboard, and lack of ten key to allow closer positioning of the mouse all make this a keyboard of choice.

Microsoft has once again improved their split keyboard with a cushioned built in palm rest and other special key functions that Microsoft is known for. The palm rest is not removable and it's not adjustable, but in its price range this is a keyboard that offers a lot of bang for the buck.

This is a good choice for a wireless mouse. Wireless mice are great to stop fighting the cord or when your work area is so cluttered it's hard to find a surface to mouse on. It's optical so you don't need to worry about it getting dirty and battery life is considered excellent. Not much on other ergonomic improvements though, it does have the high end wheel features and other bells and whistles Microsoft is known for in their products.

This is technically innovated mouse replacement. Mouse use is centered on the keyboard and can be used with either or both hands. The station provides gel palm pads and allows easy finger control of the mouse. Lots of people like this solution, but it's not for everyone- especially if you have a keyboard with a non-removable palm rest- it just won't work. The price tag on this also scares some away from this solution.

A nice inexpensive alternative if you need a separate ten key. This one is designed for laptops, so the USB cable is a bit short if your computer case is on the floor or otherwise not close to the keyboard. However, this can be solved with a USB hub or extension cord still saving money over a higher end ten key solution.

Great solution for those that like to use their finger to control the mouse. Touchpads remove the side-to-side motion of the wrist and there's nothing to grip, simply use the finger tip to move the cursor. Tapping the pad also serves as a mouse click. Contact stress to the wrists are still a problem.
