[Etiopathogenetic factors of degenerative diseases of the spine and the effects of exertion and working conditions].

Abstract:

:The work was based on literature concerning the etiopathogenesis of spondylosis and on communications estimating the effects of work conditions upon generating or intensification of degenerative disease syndromes. Traumas, micro-traumas, excessive static and dynamic workload are very important etiopathogenetic factors. The most frequently analysed occupational hazards comprise exercise body position at work, type of the movements performed, exposure to vibration. According to most authors, work conditions and ways of performing a given job may be listed among the factors that affect degenerative changes of the spinal cord.
