Efforts To Prevent Low Back Pain In Office Workers

Abstract

This study looks at low back pain (LBP) prevention techniques for office workers, with particular attention to demographics, prevalence of LBP, awareness, use, satisfaction, and perceived efficacy of interventions. Results show that there is a majority age group (26–35 years old), sporadic episodes of lower back pain, and a significant discrepancy between awareness and use of ergonomic modifications. Interventions involving physical activity exhibit lower levels of awareness and satisfaction. Studies that have been compared show that while awareness has grown throughout time, there are still ongoing difficulties in putting awareness into practice. Positive opinions of educational initiatives point to improvements in the prevention of LBP holistically. In order to have a thorough grasp of the long-term effects of preventive strategies, longitudinal designs should be used in future study. The study adds knowledge to the field of LBP prevention in office environments, which is constantly changing.
