Biomechanical assessment of a passive back-support exoskeleton during repetitive lifting and carrying: muscle activity, kinematics, and physical capacity - So BCL, Hua C, Chen T, Gao Q, Man SS.

INTRODUCTION: Most people have experienced low back pain (LBP) more or less in their lifetime. Heavier load weight could increase the risk of LBP, especially in repetitive lifting and carrying tasks. The risk could also increase with the frequency of lifti...
