Resumen
MARADEI GARCIA, Fernanda; QUINTANA JIMENEZ, Leonardo y BARRERO, Lope H. The relationship between low back pain and movements in prolonged sitting posture: Literature review. Salud, Barranquilla [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.1, pp.153-173. ISSN 0120-5552. https://doi.org/10.14482/sun.32.1.8481.
Scientific evidence shows an association between low back pain and prolonged sitting posture, also one of the most sensitive populations to this disorder are the drivers with a high prevalence. Postural movements in the chair are body's natural response to perceived discomfort caused by back pain but this is different depending on each individual's background of back pain. Based on this, we perform a review of studies related to low back pain and movement in prolonged sitting posture, including the driver population, in order to understand this relationship. We retrieved 6226 articles, of which 16 matched the established criteria and provided the information necessary to answer the review question. We found that none of the studies considered were conducted in driving activities and most of them were done with volunteer subjects regardless if they were workers or not. The movement with low back pain in prolonged sitting posture could only be explained from the range of lumbar motion because only one article matched these characteristics, finding that symptomatic people move more but low back pain does not decrease as a function of time, proving that we know very little about the paradoxical between movement and pain in prolonged sitting posture.
