“…85,87 There has also been new research evidence linking exposure of work-family conflicts to low back pain. 34,41,88 One possible result of how work-family life imbalance is related to low back pain may be the draining of psychological and physical resources leading to unhealthy behaviors, including alcohol and tobacco use and decreased leisure-time physical activity. 77, 89 Another postulated pathway between work-family life imbalance and low back pain is that mental strain can cause muscle tension or other physiological processes that might aggravate low back pain.…”

Objectives The objectives of this study were to estimate prevalence of low back pain, to investigate associations between low back pain and a set of emerging workplace risk factors and to identify worker groups with an increased vulnerability for low back pain in the US. Methods The data used for this study came from the 2010 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), which was designed to collect data on health conditions and related risk factors obtained from the US civilian population. The variance estimation method was used to compute weighted data for prevalence of low back pain. Multivariable logistic regression analyses stratified by sex and age were performed to determine the odds ratios (ORs) and the 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for low back pain. The examined work-related psychosocial risk factors included work-family imbalance, exposure to a hostile work environment and job insecurity. Work hours, occupation and other work organizational factors (non-standard work arrangements and alternative shifts) were also examined. Results The prevalence rate of self-reported low back pain in previous three months among workers in the U.S. was 25.7% in 2010. Female or older workers were at increased risk of experiencing low back pain. We found significant associations between low back pain and a set of psychosocial factors, including work-family imbalance (OR 1.27, CI 1.15–1.41), exposure to hostile work (OR 1.39, CI 1.25–1.55), and job insecurity (OR 1.44, CI 1.24–1.67), while controlling for demographic characteristics and other health related factors. Older workers who had non-standard work arrangements were more likely to report low back pain. Females who worked 41–45 hours per week and younger workers who worked over 60 hours per week had an increased risk for low back pain. Workers from several occupation groups, including, male healthcare practitioners, female and younger healthcare support workers, and female farming, fishing and forestry workers had an increased risk of low back pain. Conclusions This study linked low back pain to work-family imbalance, exposure to a hostile work environment, job insecurity, long work hours and certain occupation groups. These factors should be considered by employers, policy makers, and healthcare practitioners who are concerned about the impact of low back pain in workers.

“…Evidence has indicated that operating room personnel were affected by musculoskeletal pain (58-90%) after a year of clinical work. 25 The limited studies performed on operating room personnel around the world have also revealed the high prevalence of these disorders. However, considering the debatable results obtained in this area, no comprehensive research has been conducted on the prevalence of MSDs among operating room personnel.…”

Objectives: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are one of the most important occupational problems. However, there has also been no worldwide review and meta-analysis of the prevalence of MSDs among operation room personnel. The present study aimed to investigate and estimate the prevalence of MSDs among operating room personnel using a systematic review and meta-analysis study. Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted in 2019. The researchers searched Medline/ PubMed, ProQuest, Scopus, ScienceDirect and Embase, and Google Scholar. Studies classified by categories of country and populations. In order to determine and control the quality assessment of articles, researchers use the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist. Results: A total of 111 articles from databases were found. Final screening included 12 into statistical analysis.

“…Uluslararası literatürde ameliyathane hemşirelerinin kas iskelet sistemi sorunlarını belirlemeye yönelik çeşitli çalışmalar (6,7,10,12,15,19,20) yer alırken; Türkiye'de sağlık çalışanları kapsamında hemşirelerin kas iskelet sistemi sorunlarını saptamaya yönelik sadece birkaç çalışmaya (11,13,21,22) rastlanılmıştır. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışma Türkiye'de ameliyathane hemşirelerinde kas iskelet sistemi ağrılarının görülme sıklığını belirleyen ilk çalışmadır.…”

Bu araştırmanın amacı ameliyathane hemşirelerinin deneyimlediği kas iskelet sistemi ağrılarını belirlemektir. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipte yapılan araştırma, Haziran-Ekim 2015 tarihleri arasında 162 hemşire ile gerçekleştirildi. Veriler, bireysel özellikler formu ile Genişletilmiş Nordic Kas İskelet Anketi kullanılarak toplandı. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler (frekans, ortalama ve standart sapma), Ki-kare ve Mann Whitney U testleri kullanıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan ameliyathane hemşirelerinde görülen kas iskelet sistemi ağrılarının %56.8'inin sırt, %51.9'unun bel ve %49.4'ünün boyun bölgesinde olduğu; bunları sırasıyla omuz (%43.2), ayak/ ayak bileği (%38.3) ve diz (%31.5) bölgelerinin izlediği görüldü. Ameliyathane hemşirelerinin %88'inin son bir yılda, %79.3'ünün son bir ayda ve %57.6'sının son bir haftada en sık yaşadığı ağrının sırt ağrısı olduğu saptandı. Ameliyathanede yaş ortalaması düşük ve haftalık çalışma süresi yüksek olan hemşirelerde kas iskelet sistemi ağrılarının daha fazla görüldüğü belirlendi (p<0.01). Sonuç: Ameliyathane hemşirelerinde en fazla görülen kas iskelet sistemi ağrılarının sıklıkla sırt, bel ve boyun bölgelerinde olduğu belirlendi. Kurumlar tarafından çalışanların kas-iskelet sistemi sorunlarının belirlenmesi, ağrı nedenlerini önlemeye yönelik kurum politikalarının oluşturulması ve uygulamaya geçirilmesi önerilir.
