从坐到站的运动是功能独立性的关键决定因素。知识的频率与坐站运动是执行整个一天可以告知工作场所的人体工程学,但很少被examined.Healthy成年人(n = 140)从一般人群中招募。使用活动监测器报告每个参与者的自由生活活动。平均而言,参与者每天进行60(+/-22)次坐立运动。室内久坐职业的参与者比户外活动职业的参与者每天进行更多的坐立运动(66对54; n = 102:p = 0.003)。参与者(n = 33)在工作日比在非工作日进行了更多的坐立动作(65 vs. 55; p = 0.018)。该分析提供了以工作人群为主的坐立频率的当代数据,并表明工作和就业对该频率有显着影响。(C)2009爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The sit to stand movement is a key determinant of functional independence. Knowledge of the frequency with which the sit to stand movement is performed throughout the day could inform workplace ergonomics, but has rarely been examined.Healthy adults (n = 140) were recruited from the general population. Free-living activity for each participant was reported using an activity monitor. On average, participants performed 60 (+/-22) sit to stand movements each day. Participants in indoor sedentary occupations performed significantly more sit to stand movements per day than participants in outdoor active occupations (66 vs. 54; n = 102: p = 0.003). Participants (n = 33) performed significantly more sit to stand movements on working days than on non-working days (65 vs. 55; p = 0.018).This analysis provides contemporary data for sit to stand frequency in a predominantly working population, and demonstrates that work and employment have a significant effect on that frequency.
