Factors associated with back pain
From logistic regression analysis, adjusted for possible
confounders of age, sex, BMI, and underlying disease, the significant
ergonomic factors related to low back pain were tapping
levels, the frequency of twisting, bending and extension of trunk
(Table 6). In addition, perceived fatigue from work, social support,
educational level, and income were also statistically significant.
Predictors for other pain sites could not be identified due to a small
percentage of positive outcomes
