The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors related to occupational low back pain (LBP) occurring in male physical education teachers (PET). The location was set in Athens and we used questionnaires to collect information. Analysis revealed that the prevalence of LBP during the survey was 63%. The correlation of personal factors and LBP showed that the prevalence of LBP was significantly higher in those PET (odds ratio, 2.5) who answered yes to the item "no personal training" than in the PET who did not. Moreover, many occupational factors are related to LBP. These were the items "lifting gym instruments" (odds ratio, 2.6) and "helping students into flexing posture" (odds ratio, 3.0). From the working conditions it was confirmed that the PET (odds ratio, 2.5) who "spent more than 35 hours per week in teaching physical education" were correlated with LBP. Our results suggest that PET, under the current working condition, are vulnerable to low back pain. An improvement of these conditions must be taken into account in order to prevent LBP.
本研究旨在调查男性体育教师职业性腰痛（LBP）的相关因素。研究地点设在雅典，我们通过问卷调查收集信息。分析显示，调查期间腰痛的患病率为63%。个人因素与腰痛的相关性表明，对“没有个人训练”这一问题回答“是”的体育教师中腰痛患病率（优势比，2.5）显著高于回答“否”的体育教师。此外，许多职业因素与腰痛有关。这些因素包括“搬运健身器械”（优势比，2.6）和“帮助学生进入弯曲姿势”（优势比，3.0）。从工作条件来看，“每周花超过35小时教授体育”的体育教师（优势比，2.5）与腰痛有关。我们的结果表明，在当前工作条件下，体育教师易患腰痛。为预防腰痛，必须考虑改善这些条件。
