| Abstract: | Background : Agriculture is one of the most hazardous occupation. There are many musculoskeletal injuries in agriculture that have been consistently noticed through epidemiological and community based studies as in need for controlling the injuries and maintaining the health among farmers. Low back pain is the most common health problem among farmers because of wrong posture, heavy lifting and work load. And farmers are not aware of ergonomic considerations of their work tasks. The aim of the study was to educate them on how to meet their daily demands with proper ADL technique will enable them to perform tasks more efficiently, limit low back pain , and enhance recovery. Methods: 42 male farmers were selected as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Informed consent was taken after explaining them about the purpose of study. For those who're taking medication or any other treatment for low back pain was recommended to stopped for 8 weeks. So that we can get exact results from our activity based exercise program. They were assessed for pre test data by using VAS and Roland – Morris disability Questionnaire. The activity based exercise program pamphlet was given to the participants. The instructions regarding the activities were thoroughly explained to them. They were asked to follow the regimen for the duration of 8 weeks. The communication was made with them through phone once in a week. The post test data was collected after completion of 8 weeks. Result: In this study the pre interventional values of VAS was 7.1 and post interventional VAS was 4.9. Activity based exercises proved to improve strength, endurance and flexibility which might have accounted for the resultant improvement in VAS scores obtained in the study. The pre interventional values of RMDQ was 61 % and the post interventional RMDQ was 53%. The scale primarily measured the disability index in physical activity experienced due to low back pain which showed a significant improvement which highly marks the importance of adding home based exercise in daily activities. Conclusion : From the study it concludes that there is statistically significant Effectiveness of Activity based exercise program to improve quality of life in farmers with chronic low back pain. Thus from the study the alternate hypothesis is proved and accepted. Trail Registration : The study was retrospectively registerd. Keywords: Farmers, Chronic low back pain, Activity based exercise program, Ergonomics. |
