“…Estudos apontaram que certas posturas adotadas pelos motoristas de ônibus, podem favorecer o aparecimento de dores, sendo a dor na região lombar como a mais desenvolvida 8,9,12 . É relatado que 81,9% dos motoristas de ônibus experimentam dores na região lombar e estão intimamente relacionadas às condições de trabalho e à vibração de corpo inteiro recebida do veículo e da estrada.…”

INTRODUÇÃO: Lesões por esforços repetitivos ou distúrbios osteomusculares relacionados ao trabalho (LER / DORT) são uma síndrome que vem se tornando motivo de debate mundial, impactando o sofrimento psíquico dos trabalhadores e gerando prejuízos bilionários à sociedade. MATERIAL E MÉTODO: Revisão integrativa, sendo realizado o levantamento dos artigos nas bases de dados Scielo, MedLine, Lilacs, a partir da questão norteadora da busca: “Quais regiões do corpo apresentam maior prevalência de lesões musculoesqueléticas em motoristas de ônibus? ”. Assim, as palavras-chave: “Transtornos traumáticos cumulativos (leia / Dort)” foram cruzadas; “Saúde do trabalhador”; “Condução de veículos”; "Epidemiologia"; "Qualidade de vida". RESULTADOS: 123 artigos foram encontrados nas bases de dados selecionadas para a busca. Após as buscas, por meio da leitura do título e do resumo, foram selecionados 10 artigos, dos quais três artigos foram excluídos por abordarem a prevalência de lesões musculoesqueléticas em outra população que não os motoristas, restando, assim, sete artigos após leitura na íntegra que contemplava o método metodológico critérios estipulados para o desfecho pretendido, com cinco artigos em português e dois em inglês. DISCUSSÃO: As regiões corporais com maior prevalência de lesões osteomusculares em motoristas de ônibus foram ao longo da região do esqueleto axial, principalmente com prevalência de dor na parte superior das costas, ombros, pescoço, braços e mãos, região lombar, membros inferiores, tais como joelhos. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: Há elevada prevalência de lesões musculoesqueléticas em motoristas de ônibus, afetando principalmente membros superiores (ombro, pescoço, braços, punhos / mãos) seguidos de membros inferiores (joelhos) e região lombar. Palavras-chave: Transtornos traumáticos cumulativos (LER/DORT); Saúde do trabalhador; Condução de veículo; Epidemiologia; Qualidade de vida.

“…One of the results of the exposure of the operator to whole body vibrations is the occurrence of spine-related pathologies, which greatly impair the quality of the work activities, absence from work and severe damage to operator health (FIGUEIREDO et al 2016). SANDI et al (2018) proposed that a large part of the vibration-related health problems could be circumvented by collecting the data on the working conditions and adopting the threshold values to arrive at the exposure levels.…”

Whole body vibration in operators using agricultural soil preparation equipment

et al. 2019

Agricultural tractors have been reported to exert negative effects on operator health. It is well known that when a farm machine is designed it must consider the human factors, to raise the safety levels and work quality. The aim of the present study was to estimate the degree of vibration transmissibility from the agricultural equipment used for the periodic soil preparation process and determine the exposure of the whole body of the operator to the vibration, incident to the agricultural tractor during the operation. A 4x2 TDA tractor was employed, coupled to the periodic soil preparation equipment. Five sets were used (tractor- disk plough, tractor-moldboard plow, tractor-offset disc harrow, tractor-rotary hoe, and tractor-scarifier) and the tractor without the equipment being coupled, at two tractor speeds of displacement (3.5 km.h-1 and 6.1 km.h-1). An index (IAVEA) was developed to assess whether the amplification or attenuation of the vibrations takes place on each orthogonal axis. The data were processed using the Noise Studio® software 6.95. Statistical evaluation was performed using the ASSISTAT version 7.7 beta program. After normality, the data were submitted to the analysis of variance by the F test; when significance was reported, the means were compared using the Tukey test, at 5% significance. The disk plow was the equipment that showed the greatest intensification of the vibrations in all the parameters estimated. All the sets assessed revealed statistically equal or higher values in terms of the tractor without the attached equipment. The IAVEA% was an index that enabled the quantification of the amplification or attenuation caused by the use of the agricultural equipment.

“…Public transport is one of the world's most popular systems of transportation [1], playing an important role in commuting passengers across the world [2], with buses being one of the most used option [1]. Professional drivers often face severe adverse conditions, such as traffic congestion, continuous time pressure, excessive physical demands, and so on, which could challenge their health condition, leading to work-related musculoskeletal disorders [3,4].…”

Professional drivers are exposed to whole-body vibration while driving, which contributes to an increased risk of developing physical problems, such as pain in the lower back. This article aims to review the effects of vibration exposure on bus drivers. Searches were performed on the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus databases. Only full articles of observational and experimental studies that investigated the effects of vibration on bus drivers with consequences in the lumbar region published in English were included. Data on driver demographics, study design, objectives, bus model, seat model, length of exposure to vibration, and outcomes were extracted. Two studies were classified as evidence level III-2 and three studies as level III-3. The methodological quality of the publications presented one with a moderate and four with a serious risk of bias. In all the publications, pain in the lumbar spine was reported. In conclusion, the results of this systematic review suggest that bus drivers are exposed to mechanical vibration in their work routine, and this might be considered a risk factor for the development of pain in the lumbar spine, bearing in mind that the exposure is for long periods.
