Prospective validation of a low-back disorder risk model and assessment of ergonomic interventions associated with manual materials handling tasks.
The evaluation of low-back disorder risk associated with materials handling tasks can be performed using a variety of assessment tools. Most of these tools vary greatly in their underlying logic, yet few have been assessed for their predictive ability. It is important to document how well an assessment tool realistically reflects the job's injury risk, since only valid and accurate tools can re...

results total prevalence's of subjects with wrist-hand, shoulder-arm, neck back and lower limb disorders were obtained 556 (82.6%), 352 (52.3%), 238 (35.4%), 454 (67.5%), and 149 (22.1%) respectively (p = 0.028). the highest cumulative risk was corresponded to wrist-hand, and after that were cumulative risks of back, shoulder-arm, neck, and lower limb respectively. objectives this study was con...
متن کاملAssessing manual lifting tasks based on segment angle interpolations.
This study investigates the effects of the number of interpolation points on the prediction accuracy of segment angle trajectory during lifting. Ten participants performed various lifting tasks while a motion tracking system recorded their movements. Two-point through ten-point equal time-spaced segment angles extracted from major segment trajectory data captured by the motion tracking system w...
متن کاملAssessment of the adecuacy of KIM-LHC method in assessing the risk level based on biomechanical loads for manual lifting tasks: A laboratory study
Introduction: Manual Material handling includes activities in which pushing, pulling, lifting, lowering, carrying, and holding the load, the most common of which is lifting. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability of the KIM-LHC method to identify high-risk manual load lifting tasks. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on healthy male workers with a history of m...
متن کاملComparative assessment of manual load lifting tasks in three methods: KIM-LHC, WISHA and SNOOK tables: Case study in printing industry
Background: today, musculoskeletal disorders are considered as a serious threat for workers, and one of the main activities, which leads to these problems, is lifting tasks. Moreover, workers in printing industry are widely involved in inappropriate postures and lifting loads. The aim of this study was to compare the results of assessment of lifting tasks with KIM-LHC, WISHA and Snook tables in...
