Characteristic values of the lumbar load of manual patient handling for the application in workers' compensation procedures
BACKGROUND The human spine is often exposed to mechanical load in vocational activities especially in combination with lifting, carrying and positioning of heavy objects. This also applies in particular to nursing activities with manual patient handling. In the present study a detailed investigation on the load of the lumbar spine during manual patient handling was performed. METHODS For a to...

متن کاملLumbar spine forces during manoeuvring of ceiling-based and floor-based patient transfer devices.
Patient handling continues to represent a high risk task for low back pain (LBP) among health caregivers. Previous studies indicated that manual transfers of patients impose unacceptable loads on the spine even when two caregivers perform the transfer. Patient lift devices are considered a potential intervention; however, few biomechanical analyses have investigated the spine loads and LBP risk...
