About this study

People spend almost a third of their life sleeping and understanding how the spine can adapt to a mattress is essential for promoting people's health. The general objective of this study is to study and evaluate the adaptation of the spine to a mattress. The primary objective is the assessment of the variation in the lumbar lordosis angle (sagittal plane) in the supine position, on a mattress, compared to the value measured in the supine position on a rigid surface.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of lumbar section of spine in a supine position on a mattress

    Magnetic Risonance is used to assess the spine

    Measured: 10 minutes

  2. Evaluation of lumbar section of spine in a supine position without mattress

    Magnetic Risonance is used to assess the spine

    Measured: 10 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of lumbar section of spine in a standing position

    EOS is used to assess the spine

    Measured: 2 minutes
