Abstract

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of disability in the world that affects the population of all ages globally. The main aim of the present study was to analyze the cross-sectional association of postural education and postural hygiene habits with LBP, differentiating between frequency and intensity of pain.

Methods: This cross-sectional study assessed 849 students aged 10-12 years from primary schools. The study was based on four different structured and self-administered questionnaires: back pain questionnaire, Back Pain and Body Posture Evaluation Instrument (BackPEI), Frequency of Commuting to and from School Questionnaire, and the Hebacaknow questionnaire. In addition, height and weight were included to determine the body mass index (BMI).

Results: Participants with prevalence of LBP were significantly older (P=0.038), girls (P<0.001), taller (P=0.018), and practice active travelled back from school (P=0.016). Otherwise, participants with no prevalence of LBP sat correctly at the desk (P<0.001). Higher knowledge of postural education was associated with lower intensity of LBP (β=-0.07, CI=-0.12 - -0.02, P=0.004).

Conclusion: The knowledge related to postural education it is associated with less LBP. School interventions improving knowledge about postural education, ergonomics and postural hygiene are needed to address this important matter.

体位教育和体位卫生与小学生腰痛的关系:PEPE研究的横断面结果。
背景:腰痛(LBP)是全球范围内影响所有年龄段人群的主要致残原因。本研究的主要目的是分析体位教育和体位卫生习惯与腰痛的横断面关系,区分疼痛的频率和强度。方法:对849名10-12岁的小学生进行横断面研究。该研究采用四种不同的结构化和自我管理问卷:背痛问卷、背痛和身体姿势评估量表(BackPEI)、上下班频率问卷和Hebacaknow问卷。此外,身高和体重被纳入确定身体质量指数(BMI)。结果:LBP患病率以年龄较大(P=0.038)、女生(PP=0.018)、学校返校练习活跃(P=0.016)为主。此外,没有腰痛患病率的参与者正确地坐在办公桌前(PP=0.004)。结论:与体位教育相关的知识与腰痛的减少有关。学校干预措施需要提高姿势教育、人体工程学和姿势卫生方面的知识来解决这一重要问题。
