“…The findings of a review study also revealed that perceived workload, time pressure and poor social support were the main psychological factors associated with MSDs prevalence (27). However, the findings of a systematic review by Campbell et al (2013) showed that there was no effect of co-worker, supervisor or general work support on risk of new onset back pain (28). There are limited knowledge regarding the association of work-related psychosocial factors and MSD in hospital nurses and most of the previous studies focused on physical demands like manual handling.…”

Background: Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are one of the most occupational problems among nurses and often cause many physical and psychological complications for nurses, and are a financial burden for health-care systems. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence MSDs and their related risk factors among Iranian nurses. Patients and Methods: This descriptive-correlational study included 240 hospital nurses, with a baccalaureate nursing degree, who worked at three public hospitals of the Ilam province of Iran. Data were collected through a validated self-administered questionnaire. Finally, 156 questionnaires were returned (response rate: 65%) and 135 questionnaires qualified for subsequent analysis. The data were analyzed using the SPSS version 15.0 software. Descriptive and inferential statistics (logistic regression) were used. Results: Overall, 97 (71.9%) hospital nurses experienced MSDs in at least one anatomical site within the last year. Low back pain was the most prevalent MSDs (40%) and hip and thigh were the least (11.1%) frequent sites. Most of the nurses with MSDs worked at surgery wards (17.8%), emergency (15.6%) and intensive care units (12.6%). Pain (48.1%) and cramps (31.9%) were the most frequent symptoms of MSDs and loss of limbs control (5.9%) was the least frequent symptom. Bend or twist at waist for performing nursing procedures, patient transfer from and to beds, working with the hands higher than shoulder height and changing position of patients in beds were the most frequent occupational factors that influenced MSDs. Increased age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI) and gender had no significant association with MSDs. However, being single and involved in any kinds of physical activity were significantly associated with the prevalence of MSDs (P < 0.05). Conclusions:The study findings indicated high prevalence of worked-related MSDs among Iranian hospital nurses. Accordingly, appropriate policies for managing MSDs among hospital nurses should be considered.

“…It refers to the support people report having received or that is available to them if needed within the context of informal (e.g., family, friends) or formal relationships (e.g., healthcare services/professionals; Cohen et al 2000). Findings highlight the importance of social support in the experience of pain and pain-related outcomes such as disability (e.g., Campbell et al 2011;Campbell and Wynne-Jones 2013;Leonard et al 2006;Newton-John 2002). Most of this literature, however, has been focusing on the role of informal social support (from spouses or co-workers) on middle-aged adults' pain experiences.…”

Tel.: +351217903210 Word count: 5711words AcknowledgementsWe would like to thank Prof. Helena Carvalho for her help with statistics. This study was partially funded by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (SFRH/BD/79145/2011). We declare that there were no financial or other relationships that lead to conflicts of interest in the development of this research. The scale showed good test-retest reliability, sensitivity and discriminant and concurrent validity; the higher the preferences for dependence support the higher the desire for dependence (r=.33) and the lower the desire for independence (r=-.41). The PFSSADI is an innovative tool, which may contribute to explore the role of pain-related social support responsiveness on the promotion of older adults' functional autonomy when in pain.

“…As doenças da coluna lombar têm representado uma das principais causas de incapacidade e afastamento das atividades de trabalho por motivo de doença, representando cerca de 60% a 80% das doenças que atingem os trabalhadores (CAMPBELL et al, 2013). De acordo com Meziat Filho e Azevedo e Silva (2011), a dor nas costas é uma das principais causas de invalidez e de auxílio-doença no Brasil.…”
