目的：许多人在容易受伤的笨拙体位工作，这些姿势要求躯干稳定器肌群有足够的灵活性和力量。在评估这些因素的功能性运动屏幕(FMS)上进行操作，并设计干预措施。方法：对433名消防员进行一整套FMS测试。我们分析了FMS性能与损伤和其他选定参数的相关性。对通过训练计划提高躯干稳定器或核心肌群的灵活性和力量的干预进行了评估。结果：与历史对照组相比，在12个月的时间里，干预减少了62%的受伤损失时间和42%的受伤次数。结论：这些发现表明，核心力量和功能运动增强计划是必要的，以防止工作中涉及尴尬姿势的工人受到伤害。
Objective: Many work in injury prone awkward positions that require adequate flexibility and strength in trunk stabilizer muscle groups. Performance on a functional movement screen (FMS) that assessed those factors was conducted and an intervention was designed. Methods: A battery of FMS tests were performed on 433 firefighters. We analyzed the correlation between FMS performance and injuries and other selected parameters. An intervention to improve flexibility and strength in trunk stabilizer or core muscle groups through a training program was evaluated. Results: The intervention reduced lost time due to injuries by 62% and the number of injuries by 42% over a twelve month period as compared to a historical control group. Conclusion: These findings suggest that core strength and functional movement enhancement programs to prevent injuries in workers whose work involves awkward positions is warranted.
