Clinical and radiological picture of vertebrogenic lumbosacral dorsopathy in manual laborers

Abstract

In the clinic of occupational diseases, the issues of objective and early diagnosis of disorders of the body’s functions associated with long-term industrial activity of workers whose work is associated with functional loads that contribute to the formation of pathology of the lumbosacral spine are very relevant. In the present study, in 60 male employees of heavy physical labor caused by static and / or dynamic load on the lumbosacral spine, changes in electroneuromyographic and radiological parameters were evaluated, which reflected the clinical dynamics of the development of peripheral and musculoskeletal system disorders and were more often observed in trained employees compared to persons who were not subjected to chronic physical overload.
