With the increasingly severe energy shortage and climate change problems, developing wind power has become a key energy development strategy and an inevitable choice to protect the ecological environment worldwide. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of low back pain (LBP) and analyze its risk factors among operation and maintenance personnel in wind farms (OMPWF).
A cross-sectional survey of 151 OMPWF was performed, and a comprehensive questionnaire, which was modified and combined from Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaires (NMQ), Washington State Ergonomics Tool (WSET) and Syndrome Checklist-90(SCL-90) was used to assess the prevalence and risk factors of LBP among OMPWF.
The prevalence of LBP was 88.74 % (134/151) among OMPWF. The multivariable model highlighted four related factors: backrest, somatization, squatting and lifting objects weighing more than 10 lb more than twice per minute.
The prevalence of LBP among OMPWF appears to be high and highlights a major occupational health concern.
随着能源短缺和气候变化问题日益严峻,发展风力发电已成为全球关键的能源发展战略和保护生态环境的必然选择。本研究旨在调查风电场运维人员(OMPWF)中腰痛(LBP)的患病率,并分析其风险因素。
对151名风电场运维人员进行了横断面调查,并使用一份综合问卷评估风电场运维人员中腰痛的患病率和风险因素,该问卷是由北欧肌肉骨骼问卷(NMQ)、华盛顿州人体工程学工具(WSET)和症状自评量表90(SCL - 90)修改合并而成。
风电场运维人员中腰痛的患病率为88.74%(134/151)。多变量模型突出了四个相关因素:靠背、躯体化、蹲姿以及每分钟搬运超过10磅重物两次以上。
风电场运维人员中腰痛的患病率似乎很高,凸显了一个主要的职业健康问题。
