| Abstract |
Ergonomists measure height loss in relation to loads imposed on the spine. It is difficult to interpret
whether height loss responses recorded on different days are accurate due to natural daily
fluctuations in height loss and measurement variability. The objective of this research was to
investigate whether the variability of height loss in the sitting position is affected by time of
day and to analyse day-to-day variability in asymptomatic participants. Fifty asymptomatic participants
attended two sessions (morning and afternoon) of stadiometry testing on four separate
days. The results showed that a variability of height loss response changes in excess of
0.886mm in morning and 1.128mm in afternoon between days indicates that an intervention
itself has influenced height loss. Future investigations on height loss in sitting should take these
results into consideration to confidently state that an intervention has influenced height loss
response at each time of day. |
