IMPORTANT HEALTH WARNINGS ABOUT PLAYING VIDEO GAMES
Photosensitive Seizures
Averysmallpercentageofpeoplemay
experienceaseizurewhenexposedto
certainvisualimages,includingashing
lightsorpatternsthatmayappearin
videogames.Evenpeoplewhohaveno
historyofseizuresorepilepsymayhave
anundiagnosedconditionthatcan
causethese“photosensitiveepileptic
seizures”whilewatchingvideogames.
 Theseseizuresmayhaveavarietyof
symptoms,includinglightheadedness,
alteredvision,eyeorfacetwitching,
jerkingorshakingofarmsorlegs,
disorientation,confusionormomentary
lossofawareness.Seizuresmayalso
causelossofconsciousnessor
convulsionsthatcanleadtoinjuryfrom
fallingdownorstrikingnearbyobjects.
 Immediatelystopplayingandconsulta
doctorifyouexperienceanyofthese
symptoms.Parentsshouldwatchforor
asktheirchildrenabouttheabove
symptoms—childrenandteenagersare
morelikelythanadultstoexperience
theseseizures.Theriskofphotosensitive
epilepticseizuresmaybereducedby
takingthefollowingprecautions:
• SitfartherfromtheTVscreen.
• UseasmallerTVscreen.
• Playinawell-litroom.
• Donotplaywhenyouaredrowsyor
tired.
 Ifyouoranyofyourrelativeshavea
historyofseizuresorepilepsy,consulta
doctorbeforeplaying.
Musculoskeletal Disorders
 Useofgamecontrollers,keyboards,mice
orotherelectronicinputdevicesmaybe
linkedtoseriousinjuriesordisorders.
 Whenplayingvideogames,aswithmany
activities,youmayexperienceoccasional
discomfortinyourhands,arms,shoulders,
neckorotherpartsofyourbody.
However,ifyouexperiencesymptoms
suchaspersistentorrecurringdiscomfort,

DONOTIGNORETHESEWARNING
SIGNS.PROMPTLYSEEAQUALIFIED
HEALTHPROFESSIONAL,evenifthe
symptomsoccurwhenyouarenot
playingavideogame.Symptomssuchas
thesecanbeassociatedwithpainfuland
sometimespermanentlydisablinginjuries
ordisordersofthenerves,muscles,
tendons,bloodvesselsandotherpartsof
thebody.Thesemusculoskeletaldisorders
(MSDs)includecarpaltunnelsyndrome,
tendonitis,tenosynovitis,vibration
syndromesandotherconditions.
 Whileresearchersarenotyetableto
answermanyquestionsaboutMSDs,
thereisgeneralagreementthatmany
factorsmaybelinkedtotheiroccurrence,
includingmedicalandphysicalconditions,
stressandhowonecopeswithit,overall
healthandhowapersonpositionsand
usestheirbodyduringworkandother
activities(includingplayingavideo
game).Somestudiessuggestthatthe
amountoftimeapersonperformsan
activitymayalsobeafactor.
 Someguidelinesthatmayhelpyouwork
andplaymorecomfortablyandpossibly
reduceyourriskofexperiencinganMSD
canbefoundintheHealthyGaming
Guideatwww.xbox.com.These
guidelinesaddresstopicssuchas:
• Positioningyourselftouse
comfortable,notawkward,postures.
• Keepingyourhands,ngersand
otherbodypartsrelaxed.
• Takingbreaks.
• Developingahealthylifestyle.
 Ifyouhavequestionsabouthowyour
ownlifestyle,activitiesormedicalor
physicalconditionmayberelatedto
MSDs,seeaqualiedhealthprofessional.
Hearing Loss
 Extendedexposuretohighvolumes
whenusingaheadsetmayresultin
temporaryorpermanenthearingloss.
Someunapprovedthird-partyheadsets
mayproducehighersoundlevelsthan
