In Vivo Loads on the Lumbar Spine
Standing and walking activities: 1000 N– Supine posture: ~250 N– Standing at ease: ~500 N
Lifting activities: >> 1000 N– Lifting 10 Kg, back straight, knee bent: 1700 N– Holding 5 Kg, arms extended: 1900 N
(Nachemson 1987; Schultz 1987; McGill 1990; etc.)

Physiologic Spinal Motion
3-D Motion:- Flexion/Extension (Fig)- Right/Left Lateral Bending - Right/Left Axial Rotation
In normal condition, the spine should be flexible enough to allow these motions without pain and trunk collapse (Flexibility).

Ex vivo Studies of the Lumbar Spine
Range of Motion of the Lumbar Motion Segments:– Flexion/extension: 12 - 17 degrees– Lateral bending: 6 - 16 degrees– Axial rotation: 2 - 4 degrees
(White and Panjabi 1990)
Lumbar motion segments can withstand 3000 N - 5000 N in compression without damage.
(Adams, Hutton, et al. 1982)
![Page 16: In Vivo Loads on the Lumbar Spine l Standing and walking activities:1000 N – Supine posture: ~250 N – Standing at ease: ~500 N l Lifting.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e155503460f94aff30c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
P Without active muscles,
• When constrained to move in the frontal plane, lumbar spine specimens buckle at P < 100 N.
(Crisco and Panjabi, 1992)
• In the sagittal plane, a vertical compressive load induces bending moment and results in large curvature changes at relatively smaller loads. When exceeding the ROM, further loading can cause damage to the soft tissue or bony structure.
(Crisco et al., 1992)

HYPOTHESIS
The resultant force in the spine must be tangent to the curve of the spine (it follows the curvature).
This resultant force (follower load) imposes no bending moments or shear forces to the spine.
As a result, the spine can support large compressive loads without losing range of motion.

By making a follower load path,
Muscle co-activation can significantly reduce
the shear forces and moments,
while increasing
the compressive force
in the spine.

Postulations about Follower Load
Follower load path seems to be produced mostly by deep muscles.– Multifidus
Failure in making follower path may be the major source of various spinal disorders.
– Deformities: Scoliosis, Spondylolisthesis, kyphosis– Degenerative diseases: disc degeneration, facet OA, etc.– Adverse effect of spinal fusion and instrumentation at the adjacent level
Re-establishment of failed follower load mechanism may be most important in the treatment of spinal disorders.
– Deep muscle strengthening

Future Studies
Find if the spine is under the compressive follower load in vivo and, if so, how the follower load is produced in vivo.
– Development of mathematical model should be helpful.
Can the Back Muscles Create Follower Load In-vivo?

Result from Minimizing Moment Only
Similar patterns of muscle activation:– Minimal forces from long muscles– Significant forces in short muscles
Increasing joint follower load up to 1300 N
Solution is likely to be unique within the design space.

Discussion of Follower Load Potential static equilibrium for creating follower load in
quiet standing posture was simulated in 2-D without considering the joint stiffness.
– Further studies required for 3-D and other postures.
Parametric trials showed that the solution can vary sensitively to muscle orientations and external loading conditions.
– Instantaneous equilibrium
Back muscles can create a follower load in the lumbar spine in vivo.
Short segmental muscles play a significant role in creating follower load.

Future Studies
Investigate the biomechanical behaviors of the spine under various loading combinations of the follower loads and externally applied loads
– Altered follower load path may change the biomechanical response of the spine significantly and cause spinal disorders.
– Factors that may alter the follower load path:
• Local stiffness (or flexibility) changes in the spine due to the local disease, degeneration, injury and/or surgical interventions
• Abnormal neuromuscular control system
• Types of external loads or physiological activities

Future Studies Investigate the muscle abnormality in relation to spinal disorders
– MRI
Develop animal models for the study of follower load– Blocking nerve endings for muscle control
Effect of follower load on the spinal implants– More severe condition to spinal implant survival and greater need for load shearing in pedicle
screw instrumentation– Favorable condition for using cages and artificial discs
Develop new muscle strengthening methods
