The 'Sit-Stand -Guide' -training program, designed to promote appropriate use of sit-stand workstations (SSWs), was evaluated for usability, acceptability and impact on various outcomes among SSW users. Participants from a large municipal organisation (25% male; mean age 45 [SD = 10.6] years) completed questionnaires pre-training (T0, = 57), immediately post-training (T1, = 50), and four weeks (T2, = 46: primary endpoint) and twelve months later (T3, = 30). High usability, acceptability and usefulness scores were reported at T1. Median [IQR] knowledge (4.4/5 [0.9]) and confidence (4.6/5 [1.0]) significantly increased at T1 compared to baseline (2.8 [1.2]; 3.3 [1.4]) and maintained at T2 and T3. At T2, mean [SD] sitting time (5.3 [1.2] h/workday) and low back discomfort (2.4 [2.3]) significantly decreased compared to baseline (6.1 [1.3] h; 3.4 [2.5] discomfort), SSW usage increased (1.4 [1.4]-2.8 [1.7] transitions), with no significant changes in work performance. Some behavioural changes were sustained at T3. The Sit-Stand -Guide was acceptable and effective; evaluation across diverse workplaces and workers is now needed.
“坐立-指南”培训计划旨在促进坐立工作站(SSW)的合理使用,我们评估了其在 SSW 用户中的可用性、可接受性和对各种结果的影响。来自一个大型市政组织的参与者(25%为男性;平均年龄 45 [SD = 10.6] 岁)在培训前(T0,n=57)、培训后即刻(T1,n=50)、四周后(T2,n=46:主要终点)和 12 个月后(T3,n=30)完成了问卷调查。T1 时报告了较高的可用性、可接受性和有用性评分。T1 时的知识(4.4/5 [0.9])和信心(4.6/5 [1.0])中位数[IQR]与基线(2.8 [1.2];3.3 [1.4])相比显著增加,并且在 T2 和 T3 时仍保持不变。T2 时,与基线相比(6.1 [1.3] h/工作日;3.4 [2.5] 不适),平均[SD]坐姿时间(5.3 [1.2] h/工作日)和下背痛不适(2.4 [2.3])显著减少,SSW 使用量增加(1.4 [1.4]-2.8 [1.7] 次),工作绩效无显著变化。T3 时一些行为改变仍持续存在。“坐立-指南”是可接受且有效的;现在需要在不同的工作场所和员工中进行评估。
