Back Safety

Back Safety

Low back pain (LBP) is common among healthcare professionals with prevalence of low back pain among health care workers being greater than among those working in heavy industries. In most cases, low back pain is short lived but when it becomes chronic, it can cause significant disability, suffering and societal costs. Costs of low back pain are both from direct care and from loss of productivity. This activity reviews the evaluation and management of lower back pain in healthcare professionals and highlights the role of individuals and that of administration in preventing low back pain.
