BackgroundThere是有限的信息，职业性背痛具体到木匠，尽管他们已知的暴露于公认的职业风险因素和有限的机会，修改工作，由于主要是沉重的性质，他们的works.MethodsBy结合工会记录与工人的赔偿要求，我们描述了与工作有关的背部受伤，包括相关的医疗诊断，在1989年到2003年之间的一群工会木匠中根据年龄、性别、工会任期和主要工作类型对高风险亚组进行了探讨。支付损失的时间索赔进行了对比，不太严重的事件，和受伤的过度劳累的活动与那些持续通过更急性traumatic.ResultsBack受伤发生在6.2/200000小时的工作的整体率。大多数伤害在赔偿记录中被编码为扭伤，但这些伤害代码的性质与ICD 9诊断代码之间几乎没有一致性。随着时间的推移，因过度劳累而造成的伤害率下降最为显着。在多变量分析中，尽管机制和严重程度不同，但我们观察到评估的索赔类型的风险模式相似。那些谁的工作主要是在住宅木工或干墙安装始终处于最大的risk.ConclusionsOverexertion伤害从手动材料处理活动负责的最大负担，这些木匠之间的背部受伤，但越来越多的比例受伤的急性创伤事件。需要采取干预措施，专门解决住宅木匠和干墙安装工的风险。这些数据提供了额外的证据，证明劳工统计局的数据低估了与工作有关的伤害。Am.

BackgroundThere is limited information on occupational back pain specific to carpenters despite their known exposures to recognized occupational risk factors and limited opportunities for modified work due to the predominantly heavy nature of their work.MethodsBy combining union records with worker's compensation claims, we describe work‐related back injuries, including associated medical diagnoses, among a well‐defined cohort of union carpenters between 1989 and 2003. High risk subgroups were explored based on age, gender, union tenure, and predominant type of work. Paid lost time claims were contrasted to less serious events, and injuries sustained from overexertion activities were contrasted with those sustained through more acute trauma.ResultsBack injuries occurred at an overall rate of 6.2/200,000 hours worked. Most injuries were coded in the compensation records as sprains, but there was little agreement between these nature of injury codes and ICD9 diagnosis codes. Injury rates declined most significantly over time for injuries secondary to overexertion. In multivariate analyses, we observed similar patterns of risk for the types of claims evaluated despite disparate mechanisms and severity. Those who worked predominantly in residential carpentry or drywall installation were consistently at greatest risk.ConclusionsOverexertion injuries from manual materials handling activities are responsible for the largest burden of back injuries among these carpenters, but a growing proportion of injuries result from acute traumatic events. Interventions are called for which specifically address risk among residential carpenters and drywall installers. These data provide additional evidence that Bureau of Labor Statistics data underestimate work‐related injuries. Am. J. Ind. Med. 51:463–474, 2008. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
