Abstract

BackgroundOffice workers spend approximately two-thirds of their daily work time in a sitting position.ObjectiveThis scoping review aimed to identify and categorize key themes and knowledge gaps in research on how sitting time, posture, and behavior affect the risk of low back pain among office workers.MethodsThe authors conducted a comprehensive literature search in electronic databases [MEDLINE [via PubMed], SCOPUS, CINAHL, PEDro, and CENTRAL] from inception to March 2024, resulting in 22 studies involving 7814 participants. The methodological quality of these studies was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT).ResultsSeventeen studies [77%] were rated as high quality, four studies [18%] as moderate quality, and one study [5%] as low quality. Thirteen studies assessed sitting time, ten assessed sitting posture, and thirteen assessed sitting behavior. Among the studies investigating sitting time, five showed no relationship with low back pain (LBP) prevalence, while eight demonstrated a relationship with LBP prevalence. For studies exploring sitting posture, seven found a relationship with LBP. Regarding studies on sitting behavior, only one showed no relationship between LBP prevalence, while twelve indicated a relationship.ConclusionsLonger sitting time, poor sitting posture, fewer breaks and more static sitting in sitting behavior, were found to be associated with LBP. The strongest evidence for an association with LBP was found for sitting behavior. When considering workplace ergonomics and interventions for LBP, it is advisable to consider all factors, including sitting, posture and behavior.

办公室工作人员的腰痛与久坐时间、姿势和行为:范围综述。
背景办公室工作人员每天大约有三分之二的工作时间是坐着的。方法作者在电子数据库[MEDLINE[通过PubMed]、SCOPUS、CINAHL、PEDro和CENTRAL]中进行了从开始到2024年3月的全面文献检索,共检索到22项研究,涉及7814名参与者。结果 17 项研究[77%]被评为高质量,4 项研究[18%]被评为中等质量,1 项研究[5%]被评为低质量。13 项研究评估了坐的时间,10 项研究评估了坐姿,13 项研究评估了坐的行为。在调查坐姿时间的研究中,有五项研究表明坐姿时间与腰背痛(LBP)患病率没有关系,有八项研究表明坐姿时间与腰背痛患病率有关系。在探讨坐姿的研究中,有 7 项研究发现坐姿与腰背痛有关系。关于坐姿行为的研究,只有一项研究表明与腰背痛患病率没有关系,而有 12 项研究表明与腰背痛患病率有关系。坐姿行为是与腰椎间盘突出症相关的最有力证据。在考虑工作场所人体工程学和腰背痛干预措施时,最好考虑所有因素,包括坐姿、姿势和行为。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation is a journal whose main focus is to present relevant information about the interdisciplinary approach to musculoskeletal rehabilitation for clinicians who treat patients with back and musculoskeletal pain complaints. It will provide readers with both 1) a general fund of knowledge on the assessment and management of specific problems and 2) new information considered to be state-of-the-art in the field. The intended audience is multidisciplinary as well as multi-specialty. In each issue clinicians can find information which they can use in their patient setting the very next day.
