The Thoracic Spine and Associated Disorders and Treatment
by Joseph Kurnik,DC My previous articles have referred for the most part to the relationship of the lumbar spine and sacroiliac functioning. The middle (and especially the lower) thoracic spine also may influence SI joint functioning. There are a few situations involving the mid and lower thoracic regions which can be looked at in relation to SI joint functioning:
  • thoracic extension fixations (dysfunctions); and
  • thoracic round back disorders In the case of thoracic extension dysfunctions, which may include rotation and lateral bending dysfunctional elements, compensation for such extension restrictions will occur in sacral areas, but especially in the lower lumbar spine. Lower lumbar compensation will be in the form of increased extension. Increased extension will cause increased posterior disc and facet compression. This can lead to increased sacral counter-nutation and AS ilium fixation dysfunctions. The same principle applies to upper lumbar extension restrictions. The result of this can be low back pain, hip pain/disorders, groin strain/discomfort, and various knee complaints. Correction of the thoracic and upper lumbar extension fixations can result in partial or complete release of the AS ilium fixations.

    About the Author
    Table of Contents Words of Praise Get the latest information on evidence-based prevention and rehabilitation approaches from an internationally recognized expert; and learn how to apply the principles in industry, sport, and everyday settings. Low Back Disorders: Evidence-Based Prevention and Rehabilitation provides professionals with the foundation to make the best clinical decisions for building the best prevention and rehabilitation programs. The author's unique research results quantify forces that specific movements and exercises impose on the low back. The text identifies commonly prescribed practices that are, in fact, contraindicated in promoting back health. Additionally, it provides appropriate strategies to offset injuries and restore function. Low Back Disorders will build your understanding of the science behind the practices so that you can use them effectively with clients and patients. The book presents a clear exposition of back anatomy and biomechanics. It also provides the evidence to dispel myths regarding spine stabilization exercise and various prevention approaches. For example, the quantification of stability will show which muscles are important and which exercises groove motor patterns to ensure spine stability. With Low Back Disorders , you will
    • gain valuable information on measured loading of the back during specific activities and apply it to avoid common-but counterproductive-practices in back rehab

    The risk factors for back disorders are the same categories as for RMIs. That is because many back disorders are RMIs — they result from prolonged exposure
    http://www.apple.com/about/ergonomics/bakrsk.html
    Back and Legs Risk Factors
    The back is made up of 33 individual bones called vertebrae, separated by shock - absorbing disks. The spine is held in place by a large number of muscles and ligaments. By acting together, they give the spine the ability to bend and twist. The spine also protects the spinal cord and acts as a distribution center for the nerves that run between the brain and the other parts of the body. Anatomically, the spine is an unstable structure. We create the illusion of stability by using muscles groups in the trunk to keep the back stable. If these muscle groups are out of condition, we run the risk of injury from one - time exertions that are beyond our capacity or from prolonged use of the muscles at a slightly elevated level.
    Typical back disorders include:
    Strains and sprains are damage to the tendons and ligaments caused by one - time exertions such as lifting or carrying heavy objects. These can lead to very noticeable back pain, but the pain usually begins to subside within a few days if properly addressed and managed. Facet joint pain results from irritation of the area where the ribs meet the spinal column. Typically, there is muscle swelling in the affected area and it can become very painful to sit or stand up straight.

Champaign, IL 61825-5076, Human Kinetics, 2002, hardcover, 310 pp, illus, ISBN: 0-7360-4241-5, $45. Low Back Disorders: Evidence-Based Prevention and Rehabilitation is intended to provide the best scientific evidence available on optimal prevention strategies and rehabilitation interventions for low back injury. Stuart McGill, a spine biomechanist and clinician, notes that this book is not about perpetuating clinical myths, but rather challenging them and proposing valid and justifiable alternatives related to the prevention and treatment of low back disorders. This book comprises 14 chapters that are organized into 3 parts. Part I, which includes the first 6 chapters, provides a sound scientific foundation for the rest of the text. Part I includes chapters describing the book's biomechanically based methodological approach, epidemiological studies on low back disorders, and functional anatomy of the lumbar spine. The chapter on normal and injury mechanics of the lumbar spine is particularly beneficial to clinicians, because it explains the role of different lumbar tissues during various activities and the changes that occur following injury.

    Study Design. A 2-year follow-up study of patients with back disorders certified as sick. Objectives. To identify predictors of return to work. Summary of Background Data. Back disorders are common health problems and the most important disorders associated with absence from work in the welfare states. Predictors of future absence may be of help in allocating rehabilitation efforts to such patients. Possible predictors include demographic and medical factors, the patients' functional status, and former absence. Methods. For this study, 190 patients certified as sick who attended a back disorder outpatient clinic from September 1997 to December 1998 answered a questionnaire. Demographic data, medical factors, self-assessed function, and absence data were recorded. Return to work, defined as returning to work for at least 60 consecutive calendar days, was used in Cox regression analyses. Results. According to multiple Cox regression analyses, age of 40 to 49 years (HR, 0.52; 95% confidence interval [95%CI], 0.29-0.94), high pain intensity (HR, 0.30; 95%CI, 0.17-0.55), low self-assessed work ability (HR, 0.43; 95%CI, 0.25-0.73), and a self-predicted absence status of not returning to work (HR, 0.31; 95%CI, 0.17-0.54) predicted longer time until return to work. Back disorders with radiation predicted shorter time until return to work (HR, 2.08; 95%CI, 1.37-3.16). The COOP/WONCA chart's physical fitness, daily activities, overall health, and change in health were associated with time until return to work in univariate analyses only, as was the duration of the sickness certification episodes from start to inclusion and the degree of sickness certification at inclusion.

    Kaila-Kangas, Leena MSc *; Kivimaki, Mika PhD *+; Riihimaki, Hilkka DMedSc *; Luukkonen, Ritva PhD *; Kirjonen, Juhani PhD ++; Leino-Arjas, Paivi DMedSc * Abstract:
    Study Design. A prospective cohort study. Objectives. To study the association of psychosocial factors at work with severe back disorders leading to hospitalization. Summary of Background Data. Some psychosocial factors at work have been related to back pain, but little is known about their predictive role in severe back disorders. Methods. Psychosocial factors at work were studied by questionnaire and interview in 1973 among a cohort of 902 metal industry employees. Information on hospital admissions for back disorders from the Finnish Hospital Discharge Register in 1973-2000 was linked to the data. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate the time between the assessment of risk factors and the first hospital admission for intervertebral disc disorders (36 cases) and other back disorders (47 cases). Results. In a model including psychosocial factors and potential confounders, low job control versus high control was associated with a 3.2-fold risk (95% confidence interval, 1.3-7.8) of hospitalization for back disorders other than those of the intervertebral disc. The corresponding rate ratio for low versus high supervisor support was 2.9 (95% confidence interval, 1.3-6.3). Job demands, coworker support, and distress were not independently associated with these disorders. The result did not change when patients with chronic back disorder at baseline were excluded from the analysis. There was no association between psychosocial factors at work and hospitalizations for intervertebral disc disorders.

    Repetitive Motion Disorders (RMDs)
    Simply explained, Repetitive Motion Disorders (RMDs) are disorders of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems which may be caused or aggravated by:
    • repetitive motions; forceful exertions; vibration; mechanical compression; sustained or awkward postures; exposure to noise over extended periods of time.
    RMDs usually develop gradually over a period of weeks or months and almost always are attributed to continuously repeated actions like twisting or bending of the hands, arms and wrists. It has also been noted that the severity of the injury is often proportional to the amount of force that is combined with the repetitive motion over time. In the veterinary profession, the most likely workers at risk are groomers and housekeepers. Of course any staff member can suffer an ergonomic injury, but because of their limited range of activities and movements, these workers deserve special attention. The types of RMD injuries occurring in the veterinary practice are often different from ones occurring in the meatpacking industry or in supermarket checkouts. Although tendonitis is the most common form of RMD for assembly line workers, painters and others with limited, repeated movements of the hands, "trigger finger," "Raynaud’s syndrome" and back disorders are the most common RMDs for veterinary workers.

    Large schoolbags are causing chronic back disorders in growing children

    by Northeastern University Beyond the obvious academic stress that September brings, heading back to school may literally be a pain in the neck for students. The burden of a heavy backpack can eventually lead to the more serious problems of chronic back pain and scoliosis, according to NU physical therapy professor Mary Hickey. According to the American Physical Therapy Association, backpacks should weigh no more than 15 percent of the carriers' total body weight. However, Hickey recommends that backpacks weigh in at no more than a tenth of a child's body weight. "Kids who use backpacks often use them incorrectly and to their physical detriment," she says. "Big bags can have a lasting physical impact on developing skeletal systems and posture." Hickey conducted a research study on the physically damaging affects of heavy backpacks after witnessing her own children strain under the weight of their schoolbooks. About 70 percent of the middle school students in her experiment were lugging around a backpack that was harmful to their growing bodies. While small kids hauling around 25-pound backpacks is a common sight in elementary, middle and high school hallways, according to Hickey's computation, only a 200-pound person can safely carry a bag of this size.

    Spinal Fusion and Back Disorders: Before Surgery
    Beginning at midnight the night before surgery, don't eat any foods or drink any liquids, including water. It is very important for safety reasons to have an empty stomach before surgery. Follow this checklist to help ensure a safe surgery:
  • Tell your doctor about any health problems you might have. Check with your doctor before taking any aspirin,
    anti-inflammatory medications, or any arthritis drugs for two weeks before surgery. This includes Motrin, Feldene, Naprosyn, Aleve, Anacin, Advil, and other common over-the-counter medicines. These drugs interfere with blood clotting and can make surgery dangerous. Exercise as much as possible, with your doctor's approval. Stop smoking if you can. At the very least, don't smoke for four to five days before your surgery. Make sure your diet is high in vitamins and minerals and low in fat. Vitamins A and C and the mineral zinc have been found to help your body heal.

    http://www.cbs.state.or.us/external/osha/educate/training/pages/201disorders.htm
    Cumulative Trauma Disorders Cumulative trauma, or repetitive motion, disorders are disorders of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems which may be caused or aggravated by reptitive motions, forceful exertions, vibration, mechanical compression (hard and sharp edges), sustained or awkward postures, or by exposure to noise over extended periods of time. CTDs can affect nearly all tissues - the nerves, tendons, tendon sheaths, and muscles, with the uppoer extrmeities being the most frequently affected. These painful and sometimes crippling injuries develop gradually over periods of weeks, months, and years, and result from repeated actions such as twisting and bending the hands, arms, and wrists. A common risk factor among these disorders is the use of force combined with repetitive motion over time. The most common occupational diseases associated with CTDs are tendon disorders such as tendonitis, tenosynovitis, De Quervain's disease, trigger finger, Raynaud's syndrome, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Tendon disorders are very common and often occur at or near the joints where the tendons rub against ligaments and bones. The most frequently noted symptoms of tendon disorders are a dull aching sensation over the tendon, discomfort with specific movements, and tenderness to touch. Recovery is usually slow and the condition may easily become chronic if the cause is not eliminated.
