Abstract:
:This experimental study investigated the effects of load magnitude and movement speed on lumbar vertebral kinematics during lifting task performance. Ten participants performed sagittally symmetric lifting movements with systematically varied load using either a normal or a faster-than-normal speed. Skin-surface markers were strategically placed over the participants' spinous processes and other landmarks representing major body joints and were recorded during the movements by a motion capture system. The center of rotation (COR) locations and segmental movement profiles for lumbar vertebrae L2 to L5 were derived and analyzed. Results suggested that (a) the COR locations and vertebral angular displacement were not significantly affected by the speed or load variation; (b) a faster speed tended to shorten the time to complete the acceleration for all the lumbar vertebrae considered; and (c) the load increase incurred a tendency for the L5 to complete the primary displacement in a briefer time while enduring greater peak acceleration and velocity. The findings lead to a better understanding of the relation between lifting dynamics and spinal motion. Potential applications of this research include the development of more accurate biomechanical models and software tools for depicting spinal motions and quantifying low-back stress.
