conclusions various risk factors in the workplace may contribute to msds in different upper extremities. preventive interventions should hence include ergonomic and office equipment modifications. results the predictors of shoulder msds in the past 12 months were uncomfortable sitting posture (β = 0.42, p = 0.04), limited rest breaks (β=0.73, p = 0.012), and no access to adjustable desks (β = 0...
BACKGROUND Compared to standing posture, sitting decreases lumbar lordosis, increases low back muscle activity, disc pressure, and pressure on the ischium, which are associated with occupational LBP. A sitting device that reduces spinal load and low back muscle activities may help increase sitting comfort and reduce LBP risk. The objective of this study is to investigate the biomechanical effec...
Neutral sitting postures encouraging lumbar lordosis have been recommended in the management of sitting-related low back pain (LBP). However, prolonged lordotic sitting postures can be associated with increased fatigue and discomfort. This pilot study investigated whether changing the type of chair used in sitting can reduce the effort of maintaining a neutral sitting posture. The muscle activa...
The purpose of this study was to analyse the force output of handle and pedal as well as the electromyography (EMG) of lower extremity in different cycling postures. Bilateral pedalling asymmetry indices of force and EMG were also determined in this study. Twelve healthy cyclists were recruited for this study and tested for force output and EMG during steady state cycling adopting different ped...
Poor sitting posture is a common problem among the elderly, especially in nursing homes residents.1 Contributory factors include kyphotic changes in the spine resulting in limited flexibility; decline in muscle strength and trunk control and general loss of condition, all of which impair the ability to maintain normal posture in the sitting position.2 Moreover, prolonged sitting with poor postu...
INTRODUCTION Year after year, we spend an increasing amount of time in a sitting position. Often, we sit with poor posture, as indicated by numerous pain syndromes within the musculoskeletal system. Several reports confirm that body posture and the amount of time spent in a seated position have extensive implications for our health. Previous studies and a literature review suggest there is limi...
Automatic person identification using un-obtrusive methods are of immense importance in the area of computer vision. Anthropometric approaches are robust to external factors including environmental illumination and obstructions due to hair, spectacles, hats or any other wearable. Recently, there have been efforts made on people identification using walking pattern of the skeleton data obtained ...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relieving effect on interface pressure of an alternate sitting protocol involving a sitting posture that reduces ischial support. DESIGN Repeated measures in 2 protocols on 3 groups of subjects. SETTING Laboratory. PARTICIPANTS Twenty able-bodied persons, 20 persons with paraplegia, and 20 persons with tetraplegia. INTERVENTIONS Two 1-hour protocols were use...
The purpose of this study was to assess trunk muscle fatigue in seated handicraft tasks using surface electromyography (sEMG) and visual analogue scale (VAS) ratings for trunk discomfort, and to assess the relationship of these responses. Twenty-three participants were randomly assigned to assumed crossed-leg and heel sitting postures for 30 min. Normalised median frequency (NMF) slopes for lum...
Cadaveric lumbar intervertebral joints were loaded to simulate the erect standing posture (lordosis), and the erect sitting posture (slightly flexed). The results show that, after the intervertebral disc has been reduced in height by a period of sustained loading, the apophysial joints resist about 16 per cent of the intervertebral compressive forces in the erect standing posture, whereas in th...
