Accidental low back pain at the workplace was classified into two groups; 177 cases of the organic type and 176 cases of the non-specific type. Concerning the recuperation period, the length of leave, and the amount of compensation for recuperation, medical cost and leave of absence, a comparison was made between two groups. Regarding age, sex, and the type of work, no difference was found between the organic and the non-specific groups. However, the non-specific group showed lower values than the organic one for the duration of recuperation and leave and the amount of compensation for medical cost and leave of absence. Multiple regression analysis showed that the difference in the type of low back pain had more influence on the duration and cost than that in sex and age. The prognosis of non-specific low back pain is better than that of organic one in terms of cost and duration.
177例器质性类型和176例非特异性类型。就恢复期、休假时长以及康复补偿金额、医疗费用和缺勤情况而言，对两组进行了比较。在年龄、性别和工作类型方面，器质性组和非特异性组之间未发现差异。然而，在康复期和休假时长以及医疗费用和缺勤补偿金额方面，非特异性组的值低于器质性组。多元回归分析表明，腰痛类型的差异对持续时间和费用的影响大于性别和年龄的差异。在费用和持续时间方面，非特异性腰痛的预后优于器质性腰痛。
