This explorative study was designed to identify the usage of body mechanics in clinical settings and the occurrence of low back pain in nurses. The sample was composed of 56 nurses who work on the medical, surgical, emergency and intensive care units of a state hospital in Bolu, Turkey. Data collected through observation and interviews were evaluated using percentages, Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results of the study showed that the majority of the nurses (87.5%) experienced low back pain at some time in their lives. Among the contributing factors for back pain, the relationship between wearing high heels, heavy lifting and back pain was significant statistically. According to the observations, the majority of the nurses used body mechanics correctly while sitting (53.6%), standing (58.7%), carrying (64.3%), pulling or pushing (79.4%), moving the patient to the side of the bed without an assistant (53.4%), moving the patient to a sitting position in bed (71.4%) and assisting the patient to a standing position (66.6%). However 57.1% of the nurses lifted and 82% extended incorrectly. The conclusion from this research was that some of the nurses do not use body mechanics correctly and the majority have low back pain.
这项探索性研究旨在确定临床环境中身体力学的使用情况以及护士中腰痛的发生率。样本由在土耳其博卢一家国立医院的内科、外科、急诊科和重症监护病房工作的56名护士组成。通过观察和访谈收集的数据使用百分比、卡方检验和曼-惠特尼U检验进行评估。研究结果表明,大多数护士(87.5%)在其一生中的某个时候经历过腰痛。在导致背痛的因素中,穿高跟鞋、搬运重物与背痛之间的关系在统计学上具有显著性。根据观察结果,大多数护士在坐下(53.6%)、站立(58.7%)、搬运(64.3%)、推拉(79.4%)、在没有助手的情况下将患者移至床边(53.4%)、将患者在床上扶起至坐姿(71.4%)以及协助患者站立(66.6%)时正确使用了身体力学。然而,57.1%的护士提举动作不正确,82%的护士伸展动作不正确。这项研究的结论是,一些护士没有正确使用身体力学,并且大多数人患有腰痛。
