Abstract
My extended essay evaluates the effect of the heavy objects that we carry in our daily life on our spinal health. Spine is prone to degenerate when it exposes to external forces. I researched these effects on human health. My aim is to observe the harmful effects of heavy objects that occurs as a result of a physical force on our spine. I chose to use fresh cadaveric sheep spines, 0.5 kg, 1kg,2kg, 5kg,10 kg loads and fluoroscopy device. Therefore; my research paper examines the question: How does the weight of load, which is released from 30 cm height , affect the height of the fresh cadaveric sheep spine by compressing, that is calculated by measuring and observing the height difference and amount of damage in the spine with a fluoroscopy device, with stable temperature and pressure of the medium, stable height where loads are released and time of process? My hypothesis states that increase in weight of load is going to decrease the height of the fresh cadaveric sheep spine. Firstly, I measured the initial heights of the spines. Then, I released these objects from a 30 cm height. After, I measured the final heights and processed the obtained datas. I calculate percentage height difference 1.91 in setup 1 with 0.5 kg load, 2.57 in setup 2 with 1.0 kg load, 2.64 in setup 3 with 2.0 kg load, 21.1 in setup4 with 5.0 kg load and 34.3 in setup 5 with 10.0 kg load. I realised that if the weight of the object increases, the height difference occurred on models also increases. Therefore, the hypothesis corrected. As I considered my results, I deduced that the more we carry heavy objects in our daily life, the more we are under risk of damages and curvatures.
