About this trial

The widespread use of electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops has significantly increased screen exposure, especially before sleep. Prolonged screen use may contribute to poor posture by promoting forward head posture, rounded shoulders, and other musculoskeletal problems. In addition, screen exposure before sleep may negatively affect sleep quality and neuromuscular performance, which may in turn influence postural control and balance.
