요약 | Introduction: The population of aging workers is growing exponentially as many industrialized nations are experiencing a demographic shift. Older workers could have additional risk factors when attempting to meet the same physical work demands of their younger coworkers. This includes the static overhead loading that can lead to the occurrence of shoulder musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Understanding the effects of fatigue on the younger versus older workforce is essential for the prevention of MSDs. Previous studies on scapulothoracic kinematic changes and their relationship to shoulder MSDs have neither examined the effects of sustained static overhead loading commonly found in the workplace nor any variations that may exist between younger and older populations. However, scapulothoracic kinematic changes have been observed with muscle fatigue in younger populations. The objectives of this study were: 1) to investigate the effect of shoulder muscle fatigue caused by sustained overhead activity on scapulothoracic kinematic changes in order to compare kinematic and time to fatigue differences in younger and older populations |
