Study of lumbar pain on subjects with lumbar mechanical injury
background
The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of the exoskeleton on low back pain experienced by operators suffering from mechanical injuries during a work week.
Method
To do this, 20 operators assessed their pain level during three weeks of work with and without the Japet.W exoskeleton. Each day, their pain level was collected through the Visual Analogue Scale (EVA) at the end of the day.
Result
This study allows us to conclude that 85% of people with lumbar pathology experience a significant decrease in pain with Japet.W.
Study of low back pain on subjects without lumbar mechanical injury
background
The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of the exoskeleton on the pain experienced by operators who do not suffer from lumbar pathology during a working week.
Method
To do this, 10 operators assessed their pain level during three weeks of work with and without the Japet.W exoskeleton. Each day, their pain level was collected through the Visual Analogue Scale (EVA) at the end of the day.
Result
This study allows us to conclude that wearing the Japet.W exoskeleton allows 50% reduction in pain in subjects without lumbar pathology.
