Abstract

The paper presents a problem of overloading the lumbar part of the spine in drivers of heavy automotive equipment. Results of examinations of 480 drivers have been discussed. In this group 162 subjects complained in the anamnesis of having had pains. The group contained 1 subjects currently undergoing treatment and 4 subjects permanently unable to work. 95.7% were treated conservatively, the remaining 4.3% underwent operation. Finally, there is a possibility to decrease the rate of lumbar spine overloading through extensive prevention.
