Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Effect of an abdominal belt on trunk muscle activity and intra-abdominal pressure during squat lifts

Notes: Sumario: The purpose of this study was to determine whether abdominal belts such as those prescribed to industrial workers reduced trunk muscle activity and/or increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). The muscle activity and IAP results of this study during short duration lifting tasks make it difficult to justify the prescription of abdominal belts to workersRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 33, nº 2, February 1990 ; p. 147-160Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Biomecánica Columna vertebral Postura Cinturones de seguridad Carga de materiales Fuerza muscular Otros autores: Norman, R.W.
