Research Abstract |
Most nurses suffer from some lower back pain(LBP). The load on the lumber region in nursing practice depends on patient's condition and situation. So we regard it as the load of nursing practice, and suggest visualizing the load on the lumber region for nursing management. We compared three methods divided into four motions according to purpose. Results of visualizing the differences of the load on the lumber region by twist angle, twist angular velocity and twist angular acceleration in each method could indicate nursing practice of less load.
