Comparison of four peak spinal loading exposure measurement methods and their association with low-back pain

摘要

Objectives: This paper examines the performance of 4 different methods of estimating peak spinal loading and their relationship with the reporting of low-back pain. Conclusions: While all the methods detected significant odds ratios, they cannot all be used interchangeably For risk assessment at the individual level. Peak spinal compression, moment, and shear are important risk Factors for low-back pain reporting, no matter which measurement method is used.
