Title

EFFECT OF GENERAL HEALTH STATUS ON CHRONICITY OF LOW BACK PAIN IN INDUSTRIAL WORKERS

Pages

  211-217

Abstract

 Recognizing patients at a higher risk of developing chronic LOW BACK PAIN (LBP) is important in industrial medicine. This study aimed to assess the power and quality of GENERAL HEALTH QUESTIONNAIRE (GHQ) for prediction of the odds of chronicity of acute LBP. This study was conducted on industrial workers.All subjects with acute LBP who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Demographic characteristics, occupational, physical, and mental parameters and the general health status of subjects were evaluated, they were followed up for developing chronic LBP for one year. Cigarette smoking, high body mass index, job stress, physical load and high GHQ scores were found to be the risk factors for the progression of acute LBP to chronic LBP (P<0.05). Standing position while working, age, work experience, exercise, level of education, weekly work hours and shift work were not the risk factors for chronic LBP (P>0.05).High GHQ score can be a risk factor for progression of acute LBP to chronic LBP. The GHQ in combination with the JOB CONTENT QUESTIONNAIRE can be used as a quick and simple screening tool for detection of subjects at high risk of chronic LBP when evaluating acute LBP in an occupational setting.
