The effect of rest break schedule on acute low back pain development in pain and non-pain developers during seated work
Pain and non-pain developers engaged in prolonged sitting under four conditions. Pain developers showed clinically relevant increases in pain in all conditions. Non-pain developers remained at stable low-levels of pain in all conditions. Productivity was maintained in both groups in all four sessions. Changes in muscle activation were not observed in pain or non pain developers.
