    AbstractWe previously studied the fatigue and stress of anesthesiologists at work using a flicker photometer, visual reaction time test, questionnaires, and Holter EKG. In the present study, we investigated the fatigue and stress in seven junior anesthesiologists at work using a flicker photometer and a stabilo-meter. The stabilo-meter measures postural stabilization. We performed each test three times on each subject for a total of twenty-one times. The flicker test and the stabilo-test showed the increase in fatigue in 17 (18%) and in 16 tests (76%), respectively, in all seven subjects. Increase of fatigue in both the flicker and stabilo-tests was observed in 13 tests (61%) of 6 subjects. There was a good relationship between the flicker test and the stabilo-test. Therefore, the stabilo-test appears to be a useful method for investigating the fatigue of anesthesiologists.
