“…Self-perceived musculoskeletal pain was measured with a validated Spanish adaptation of the Standardized Nordic Questionnaire for the analyses of musculoskeletal symptoms from the ERGOPAR method [30, 44, 45] at baseline, six and 12-month follow-up. Information on pain or discomfort was collected in seven anatomical sites, i.e.…”

BackgroundNurses and nursing aides are at high risk of developing musculoskeletal pain (MSP). This study aimed to evaluate a multifaceted intervention to prevent and manage MSP in two hospitals.Material and methodsWe performed a two-armed cluster randomized controlled trial, with a late intervention control group. Clusters were independent hospital units with nursing staff as participants. The intervention comprised three evidence-based components: participatory ergonomics, health promotion activities and case management. Both the intervention and the control group received usual occupational health care. The intervention lasted one year. MSP and work functioning data was collected at baseline, six and 12-month follow-up. Odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated for MSP risk in the intervention group compared to the control group using logistic regression through GEE. Differences in work functioning between the intervention and control group were analyzed using linear regression through GEE. The incidence of sickness absence was calculated through logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard modeling was used to analyze the effect of the intervention on sickness absence duration.ResultsEight clusters were randomized including 473 nurses and nursing aides. At 12 months, the intervention group showed a statistically significant decrease of the risk in neck, shoulders and upper back pain, compared to the control group (OR = 0.37; 95%CI = 0.14–0.96). A reduction of low back pain was also observed, though non statistically significant. We found no differences regarding work functioning and the incidence and duration of sickness absence.ConclusionsThe intervention was effective to reduce neck, shoulder and upper back pain. Our results, though modest, suggests that interventions to prevent and manage MSP need a multifactorial approach including the three levels of prevention, and framed within the biopsychosocial model.

“…The Spanish adaptation of the Nordic Questionnaire from the ERGOPAR Method [45] is used to measure self-perceived MSP in the neck, shoulders and upper back, low back, elbows, hands, legs, knees, and feet, through the dichotomous question “Do you have discomfort or pain in this area?”. Data are collected at baseline, six and 12-month follow-up.…”

Prevention and management of musculoskeletal pain in nursing staff by a multifaceted intervention in the workplace: design of a cluster randomized controlled trial with effectiveness, process and economic evaluation (INTEVAL_Spain)

Background Musculoskeletal pain (MSP) is the leading cause of years lived with disability. In consequence, to reduce MSP and its associated sickness absence is a major challenge. Previous interventions have been developed to reduce MSP and improve return to work of workers with MSP, but combined approaches and exhaustive evaluation are needed. The objective of the INTEVAL_Spain project is to evaluate the effectiveness of a multifaceted intervention in the workplace to prevent and manage MSP in nursing staff. Methods The study is designed as a two-armed cluster randomized controlled trial with a late intervention control group. The hospital units are the clusters of randomization and participants are nurses and aides. An evidence-based multi-component intervention was designed combining participatory ergonomics, case management and health promotion. Both the intervention and the control groups receive occupational health care as usual. Data are collected at baseline, and after six and 12 months. The primary outcomes are prevalence of MSP and incidence and duration of sickness absence due to MSP. Secondary outcomes are work role functioning and organizational preventive culture. The intervention process will be assessed through quantitative indicators of recruitment, context, reach, dose supplied, dose received, fidelity and satisfaction, and qualitative approaches including discussion groups of participants and experts. The economic evaluation will include cost-effectiveness and cost-utility, calculated from the societal and the National Health System perspectives. Discussion Workplace health programs are one of the best options for the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases. The main feature of this study is its multifaceted, multidisciplinary and de-medicalized intervention, which encompasses three evidence-based interventions and covers all three levels of prevention, which have not been previously unified in a single intervention. Also, it includes a comprehensive quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the intervention process, health results, and economic impact. This study could open the possibility of a new paradigm for the prevention and management of MSP and associated sickness absence approach at the workplace.

“…4,5 Para la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), los trastornos músculo esqueléticos (TME) se pueden definir como problemas de salud asociados con el aparato de locomoción. Estos cubren todo tipo de quejas, desde molestias leves y pasajeras hasta lesiones irreversibles e incapacitantes; los TME por exposición a riesgos ergonómicos en el trabajo son los problemas de salud de origen laboral más frecuentes en términos de incidencia y prevalencia 6 ; existen diversos factores de riesgo que se asocian a los TME, como son: las demandas físicas, en especial el levantamiento de cargas, las posturas inadecuadas, la repetitividad, la sobrecarga de trabajo; las demandas psicosociales, entre las cuales se destaca la alta demanda psicológica; considerando las demandas físicas y psicológicas como factor de riesgo ocupacional; asimismo, las características individuales y extra-laborales como la falta de apoyo social, también se consideran factores asociados a los TME. 1,7 El síntoma principal es el dolor constante localizado en músculos o articulaciones, seguido de rigidez que aparece frecuentemente en el área afectada y en algunos casos es acompañado de hormigueo, entumecimiento y/o adormecimiento; generalmente el dolor se encuentra asociado con inflamación, y en extremidades superiores puede aparecer pérdida o disminución de la fuerza e incluso ocasionar incapacidad funcional de la zona anatómica afectada acompañada de pérdida de la sensibilidad; algunas de las lesiones más frecuentes son: tendinitis, tenosinovitis, epicondilitis, síndrome del túnel carpiano, desviación de cervicales entre otras problemáticas las cuales se asocian a movimientos repetitivos.…”

Introducción: los trastornos músculo esqueléticos son definidos como problemas de salud asociados con el aparato locomotor, inducidos por el trabajo que se desempeña y las condiciones en las que se ejerce, su principal sintomatología es el dolor, adormecimiento, rigidez, hormigueo, inflamación o pérdida de la fuerza. El profesional de enfermería (PE) realiza actividades en el ámbito laboral que influyen directamente en su aparición. Objetivo: conocer cuáles son los síntomas músculo esqueléticos más frecuentes en el PE en un hospital de segundo nivel. Material y métodos: estudio observacional, descriptivo, prospectivo, transversal, la muestra fue de n= 220 PE, de ambos sexos, de cualquier servicio, de base o contrato, que desempeñan funciones asistenciales. Se utilizó el cuestionario nórdico para recabar la información. Resultados: el 80.9% fueron mujeres, 50% con edad comprendida entre 20 y 39 años, 88.2% manifestó sintomatología durante los últimos 12 meses, 76% manifestó sintomatología los últimos 7 días, las regiones anatómicas más afectadas fueron cuello (41.3%), espalda baja (40.9%), rodillas (37.8%), la mayor frecuencia de sintomatología músculo esquelética se presenta en el turno matutino con 26%. Conclusión: un importante porcentaje de PE manifestó sintomatología músculo esquelética, misma que llegan a interferir con la realización de las actividades normales.
