背景:这项研究的目的是调查矫正锻炼计划对上交叉综合征(UCS)工人生产力的有效性。
方法:我们使用平行组的随机对照试验(RCT),双盲,随机化。参与者是在Markazi省一家公司招募的工人,测试组23人,对照组25人。干预前后,通过WPAI-GH问卷测量工作效率和活动障碍。此外,用测角仪测量FH和RS的角度,后凸角由柔性尺测量。锻炼计划包括伸展,加强,和稳定演习,每周进行三次,共八周。主要结果是工作效率和活动障碍,次要结果是FH,RS,还有KY.所有主要和次要结果在干预前进行测量,干预后一周。
结果:结果显示KY存在显着差异(MD=3.84,95%CI:0.75,6.94,p=0.017),RS(MD=-1.83,95%CI:-2.88,-0.88,p=0.001),干预前后FH(MD=3.01,95%CI:1.98,4.04,p=0.001)。此外,组内差异显示工作时间的显著差异(MD=-2.60,CI:-4.84,-0.37,p=0.003**),运动组的总体工作生产率损失(MD=-2.02,CI:-3.78,-0.26,p=0.013**)。然而,对工作和活动损害没有显著影响.
结论:由于在选择性锻炼计划中检测到生产力的显着差异,超过8周的连续锻炼计划可以有效地管理生产力和增加实际工作时间。
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a corrective exercise program on workers\' productivity with Upper Crossed Syndrome (UCS).
METHODS: We used Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized. The participants were workers recruited at a company of Markazi Province that 23 persons in test group and 25 in control group participated. Before and after the intervention, work productivity and activity impairment was measured by the WPAI-GH questionnaire. In addition, angles of FH and RS were measured by Goniometer, and kyphosis angle was measured by a flexible ruler. The exercise program consisted of stretching, strengthening, and stabilization exercises, conducted three times a week for eight weeks. The primary outcome was work productivity and activity impairment, and the secondary outcomes were FH, RS, and KY. All primary and secondary outcomes were measured before the interventions, one week after intervention.
RESULTS: Results revealed significant differences for KY (MD = 3.84, 95% CI: 0.75,6.94, p = 0.017), RS (MD = -1.83, 95% CI: -2.88, -0.88, p = 0.001), and FH (MD = 3.01, 95% CI: 1.98,4.04, p = 0.001) before and after the intervention. In addition, within-group differences showed a significant difference in work time missed (MD = -2.60, CI: -4.84, -0.37, p = 0.003**), and overall work productivity loss (MD = -2.02, CI: -3.78, -0.26, p = 0.013**) in exercise group. However, there were no significant effects on impairment at work and activity.
CONCLUSIONS: Since significant differences were detected in a selective exercise program on productivity, a continuous exercise program for more than 8-week could be effective in managing productivity and increasing practical working hours.
