Introduction.
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are common among nurses and can affect patient outcomes.
There is a dearth of literature on MSD among Indian nurses.
The study objective was to measure prevalence of MSD and their association with perceived work demands and sociodemographic variables among female nurses at a tertiary care hospital in rural India.
Methods.
A cross-sectional study was undertaken in 2013 through interviewer administered questionnaires which comprised three parts: sociodemographic data, modified Nordic questionnaire, and perceived physical and psychological work demands.
Results.
296 nurses with a mean age of 30.4 years participated.
Prevalence of any MSD in the last seven days was 60.5% with low back pain being the most common and elbow pain the least common.
Occurrence of any MSD was associated with age, number of children, working hours at home, BMI, and total work experience.
High perceived physical demands score was associated with lower back (OR: 3.06) and knee pain (OR: 7.73).
Conclusion.
Prevalence of MSD was high and occurrence of lower back and knee MSD was associated with perceived physical demands.
This information should be used as a benchmark and guiding tool for designing work place interventions to improve working conditions and health of nurses.
