The Relationship

Posture is commonly perceived as the relationship between the segments of the human body upright. Certain parts of the body such as the cephalic extremity, neck, torso, upper and lower limbs are involved in the final posture of the body. Musculoskeletal instabilities and reduced postural control lead to the installation of nonstructural posture deviations in all 3 anatomical planes. When we talk about the sagittal plane, it was concluded that there are 4 main types of posture deviation: hyperlordotic posture, kyphotic posture, rectitude and "sway-back" posture.Pilates method has become in the last decade a much more popular formof exercise used in rehabilitation. The Pilates method is frequently prescribed to people with low back pain due to their orientation on the stabilizing muscles of the pelvis. Pilates exercise is thus theorized to help reactivate the muscles and, by doingso, increases lumbar support, reduces pain, and improves body alignment.

Introduction. The nurses who works at Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Emergency Unit often suffering Low Back Pain (LBP) because they have high mobility and unergonomic condition. The purpose of this study were to identify the correlation among age, body mass index and working position of nurses with the low back pain who work in ICU and emergency unit at Sari Mutiara Indonesia general hospital. Methods. The data obtained was analyzed by analytic correlational with cross-sectional approach. The Sampel of this study was recruited with total sampling as 31 nurses. The data was analyzed by spearman correlation with α = 0.05. Result. The result of this study found that there was a signifi cant correlation between age with low back pain (r = 0.466 ; p <0.05). While body mass index and working position there was no signifi cantly correlation with low back pain ( r=0.195; p > 0.05 and r = - 0.172;p >0.05), respectively. Discussion. It can be recommended to occupational safety team to organize training the manner of working according to ergonomic standard, in addition to develope standar operating procedure for nurses in the hospital.Keywords : Risk factors, low back pain, nurse
