<p>Spinal Nerves = Facilitate movement and sensation of trunk and extremities Discs = Provide shock absorption Spinal Column = Support the body and protect the spinal cord Intervertebral Foramen (IVF) = Allow exit of spinal nerves</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Poor body mechanics = Improper movement that increases injury risk Sedentary lifestyle = Lack of physical activity leading to weakness Cumulative stressful positions = Repeated postures increasing intradiscal pressure Combined trunk flexion and rotation = A motion that risks injuring the back</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Maintain a wide base of support = Provides stability when lifting Lift with the legs = Uses stronger muscles for lifting Avoid twisting = Minimizes the risk of spinal injuries Keep the load close = Reduces strain on the lower back</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Scoring system = Determines staff and equipment needs Patient mobility = Reflects a patient's ability to move independently Patient cooperation = Indicates how willing a patient is to participate Medical conditions = Influences the required level of assistance</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>End-range motion = Involves extreme flexion or extension of the spine Postures increasing intradiscal pressure = Can lead to chronic pain conditions Combined trunk flexion and rotation = Commonly causes muscle strain Prolonged sitting = Often leads to poor spinal alignment</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>80% of the population = Experiences back pain at some point 1/5 of work-related injuries = Involves back-related issues Hospital workers = Have double injury rates compared to other services Sedentary lifestyles = Contribute to a significant percentage of back pain</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Test the load = Ensures it can be safely lifted Use smooth movements = Reduces risk of sudden injury Communicate effectively = Improves coordination in lifting Keep head up during lifts = Maintains lumbar curve integrity</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Twisting is safe = Can lead to specific injuries to the back Lifting with the back = Increases risk of chronic pain Static positions are harmless = Can cause cumulative stress on the spine Only heavy lifting causes injury = Light loads can also lead to back pain</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Rectus Abdominis = Moves the trunk forward Obliques = Facilitates twisting movements Multifidus = Provides spinal stability Transversus Abdominis = Supports the abdominal wall</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Flexion = Bending the spine forward Extension = Straightening the spine back Rotation = Turning the trunk around the vertical axis Side bending = Leaning sideways along the spine</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Hip flexors = Can increase lumbar lordosis if tight Hamstrings = Can decrease lumbar lordosis if tight Erector Spinae = Contributes to maintaining lordosis Pectoralis = Affects upper body posture indirectly</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Frequent breaks = Reduces risk of strain Good posture = Improves alignment Custom workstations = Enhances efficiency Core strengthening = Increases overall stability</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Neutral spine = Maintains normal lordosis Good body mechanics = Optimal lifting techniques Physiological movement = Safe and natural spinal motion Non-physiological movement = Can lead to injury and instability</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Strengthening exercises = Focusing on postural muscles Flexibility training = Stretching hamstrings and hip flexors Cardiovascular activity = 150 minutes per week Core stability exercises = Engaging Multifidus and Transversus Abdominis</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Tight hip flexors = Can increase lordosis Tight hamstrings = Can decrease lordosis Tight pectoralis = Can impact shoulder alignment Tight lower back muscles = Limits spinal mobility</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Correcting sitting posture = Prevents future injuries Maintaining lumbar lordosis = Supports spine integrity Taking regular breaks = Reduces muscle fatigue Engaging in regular exercise = Enhances overall health</p> Signup and view all the answers
