“…Other relevant results in the present study were higher prevalence rates of elbow pain (PR:3.4 CI95%:1.1-10.3) and knee (PR:2.4 CI95%:1.1-5.0) in individuals who are insufficiently active in relation to the active ones.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The hospital environment is considered to be unhealthy, and, moreover, the work performed by nursing professionals presents several risk factors for the development of pain. In this sense, the present study aims to analyze the musculoskeletal disorders in the nursing team and to correlate with the level of physical activity, anthropometric characteristics and the professional profile at the University Hospital in Petrolina, Pernambuco. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study with 143 nursing professionals, of which 122 were female (37±7 years) and 21 were male (33±6 years). The individuals answered the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire.

O objetivo foi investigar características da dor no joelho em idosos usuários da atenção primária à saúde, segundo aspectos sociodemográficos. Foi realizado estudo transversal com 201 idosos em três unidades de saúde selecionadas aleatoriamente. Dor no joelho foi classificada em crônica (>três meses) e aguda (
