Abstract

Low back pain is a sensation of pain in the lumbosacral and sacroiliaka region. The main causes of low back pain is mechanical factors include strain and sprain that occurs in severe and repeated physical activity. The aim of this study was investigated the relationship between stance and position of work, age, smoking habits and overweight with the low back pain incidence among furniture workers in Kambu District Kendari City. This study used cross-sectional study design. There were 100 samples in this study, chosen using cluster sampling. Data collection was derived from direct observation workplace and analyzed using Chi-Square statistical test. The study result show that 43 respondents (43%) were LBP and 57 respondents (57%) were not LBP. The low back pain incidence was found mostly in the stance and position of work (> 45o) (74,4%), age group 36-45 year (37,21%), mild smokers (60,5%) and overweight (51,2%). The bivariate analysis results show that age variable related with low back pain incidences (p=0,004), overweight variable related with low back pain incidences (p=0,011), stance and position of work variable related with low back pain incidences (p=0,00) dan smoking habits variable didn’t related with low back pain incidences (p=0,307). The conclusion of this study that there were a relationship between stance and position of worker, age and overweight with the low back pain incidences, whereas smoking habits were not relating to the low back pain incidences.Keywords : low back pain, stance and position of work, age, smoking, overweight

Abstract

Low back pain is feeling of pain in the lumbosacral and sacroiliac region, often spreading to the upper and lower limbs. Manual material handling (MMH) is still needed because it can be done in the limited space and dependent of physical activity. If MMH is not ergonomically used, it would cause tissue damage, due to excessive lifting load. The aimed of research is to determine the relationship of manual material handling with low back pain. The study design was observational analytic with cross sectionalapproach. Population were all of unloading workers in the Marine Nusantara Port, Kendari, as many as 268 people. The purposive sampling technique was used to recruit 120 respondents. Data was analyzed using Chi Square test, as well as alternative of Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Results of study showed a correlation between manual material handling with the incidence of low back pain (p= 0.003). The other risk factor, such as age (p= 0.537), smoking (p = 0.988 ), exercise habits (p= 0.854), overweight (p=0.306) did not significantly correlated with low back pain. It can be concluded that manual material handling is the determinant  factor of  low back pain, among Marine Nusantara Port, Kendari.  Key Words: manual material handling, biomechanical methodes, low back pain, unloading workers, physical activity, Nusantara Marine Port
