Objective: to determine the impact of forced postures on the musculoskeletal system of nursing staff belonging to health district 18D04 in the province of Tungurahua. Methods: descriptive correlational mixed study with a cross-sectional design. The Nordic questionnaire was applied, and the correlation between variables was determined using the Pearson correlation coefficient in the SPSS software. Data processing was performed in Microsoft Office Excel. Results: the main inappropriate postures included: leaning or twisting the trunk, with bent knees and unbalanced weight, and arms above the shoulders. The most affected area was the dorsolumbar region, lasting more than a month in the last year, with episodes ranging from mild to severe, caused by repetitive movements and load handling. Additionally, due to these ergonomic risks, MSDs such as: dorsalgia, lumbalgia, disc herniation, rotator cuff tendinitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome could develop, necessitating rehabilitation. Conclusions: MSDs are a significant concern for nursing staff due to the physical nature of their work, making coordinated and collaborative action essential through prevention and treatment programs that can reduce their prevalence and improve both their quality of life and patient care. |
