in normal shoulder kinematics (motion)
that affect risk for shoulder
impingement disorders (Ebaugh et al.,
2006; Chopp et al., 2010).
The U.S. Manufacturing sector has
faced a number of challenges including
an overall decline in jobs, an aging
workforce, and changes in
organizational management systems.
Studies have indicated that the average
age of industrial workers is increasing
and that older workers may differ from
younger workers in work capacity,
injury risk, severity of injuries, and
speed of recovery (Kenny et al., 2008;
Gall et al., 2004; Restrepo et al., 2006).
As the average age of the industrial
population increases and newer systems
of work organization (such as lean
manufacturing) are changing the nature
of labor-intensive work, prevention of
MSDs will be more critical to protecting
older workers and maintaining
productivity.
This study will continue to evaluate
the efficacy of two intervention
strategies for reducing musculoskeletal
symptoms and pain in the shoulder
attributable to overhead assembly work
in automotive manufacturing. These
interventions are, (1) an articulating
spring-tensioned tool support device
that unloads from the worker the weight
of the tool that would otherwise be
manually supported, and, (2) a targeted
exercise program intended to increase
individual employees’ strength and
endurance in the shoulder and upper
arm stabilizing muscle group. As a
primary prevention strategy, the tool
support engineering control approach is
preferred; however, a cost-efficient
opportunity exists to concurrently
evaluate the efficacy of a preventive
exercise program intervention. Both of
these intervention approaches have
been used in the Manufacturing sector,
and preliminary evidence suggests that
both approaches may have merit.
However, high quality evidence
demonstrating their effectiveness, by
way of controlled trials, is lacking.
This project will be conducted as a
partnership between NIOSH and Toyota
Motors Engineering & Manufacturing
North America, Inc. (TEMA), with the
intervention evaluation study taking
place at the Toyota Motor
Manufacturing Kentucky, Inc. (TMMK)
manufacturing facility in Georgetown,
Kentucky. The prospective intervention
evaluation study will be conducted
using a group-randomized controlled
trial multi-time series design. Four
groups of 25–30 employees will be
established to test the two intervention
treatment conditions (tool support,
exercise program), a combined
intervention treatment condition, and a
control condition. The four groups will
be comprised of employees working on
two vehicle assembly lines in different
parts of the facility, on two work shifts
(first and second shift). Individual
randomization to treatment condition is
not feasible, so a group-randomization
(by work unit) will be used to assign the
four groups to treatment and control
conditions. Observations will be made
over the 10-month study period and
questionnaires will include the
Shoulder Rating Questionnaire (SRQ),
Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and
Hand (DASH) questionnaire, a
Standardized Nordic Questionnaire for
body part discomfort, and a Work
Organization Questionnaire. In addition
to the questionnaires, a shoulderspecific functional capacity evaluation
test battery will be administered at 90
and 210 days, immediately pre- and
post-intervention, to confirm the
efficacy of the targeted exercise program
in improving shoulder capacity.
In summary, this study will evaluate
the effectiveness of two interventions to
reduce musculoskeletal symptoms and
pain in the shoulder associated with
repetitive overhead work in the
manufacturing industry. In addition,
NIOSH will disseminate the results of
evidence-based prevention practices to
the greatest audience possible. NIOSH
expects to complete all data collection
by 2018. There is no cost to respondents
other than their time.
