a comparative assessment of manual load lifting using niosh equation and wisha index methods in industrial workers of shiraz city
background: manual load lifting is the most common and stressful activity that imposes high biomechanical pressures on the body, particularly on the back. diverse studies have shown that load lifting can cause work-related musculoskeletal disorders among workers. this study was conducted to assess manual lifting activity using niosh equation and wisha index and compare the results of the two me...
متن کاملEfficacy of the Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation to Predict Risk of Low-Back Pain Associated With Manual Lifting: A One-Year Prospective Study
OBJECTIVE The objective was to evaluate the efficacy of the Revised National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) lifting equation (RNLE) to predict risk of low-back pain (LBP). BACKGROUND In 1993, NIOSH published the RNLE as a risk assessment method for LBP associated with manual lifting. To date, there has been little research evaluating the RNLE as a predictor of the risk o...

متن کاملMechanical lifting energy consumption in work activities designed by means of the “revised NIOSH lifting equation”
The aims of the present work were: to calculate lifting energy consumption (LEC) in work activities designed to have a growing lifting index (LI) by means of revised NIOSH lifting equation; to evaluate the relationship between LEC and forces at the L5-S1 joint. The kinematic and kinetic data of 20 workers were recorded during the execution of lifting tasks in three conditions. We computed kinet...
