Background. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) have been described as one of the major causes of physical pain and disability. Health professions, in general, are among those at higher risk of injury. Objective. The aim of the study was to carry out a systematic review of cross-sectional studies on physical-physiotherapeutic musculoskeletal disorders in physiotherapists. Materials and Methods. Bibliographic research was carried out through the PUBMED, PEDRO, and CINAHL databases. The selected articles had to comply with the following inclusion criteria: original peer review articles, English and Italian articles, cross-sectional studies with sample sizes of at least 25 physiotherapists, and no time limit. Results. In general, the results of studies on the WRMDs of physiotherapists have been comparable, with the exception of some differences between the various countries linked to both the level of development and the psychosocial and epidemiological status of the physiotherapy profession. Healthcare workers are among the professional categories most exposed to work-related musculoskeletal disorders because they are in direct contact with the patient, which often requires an important physical commitment to lifting and relocating patients for long-held incongruous postures, for repetitive movements, for joint effort, and for overload in manual techniques.
背景。肌肉骨骼疾病（MSD）被认为是身体疼痛和残疾的主要原因之一。一般来说，医疗行业是受伤风险较高的行业之一。目的。本研究的目的是对关于物理治疗师身体物理治疗性肌肉骨骼疾病的横断面研究进行系统综述。材料和方法。通过PUBMED、PEDRO和CINAHL数据库进行文献研究。所选文章必须符合以下纳入标准：原始同行评审文章、英文和意大利文文章、样本量至少为25名物理治疗师的横断面研究，且无时间限制。结果。总体而言，关于物理治疗师工作相关肌肉骨骼疾病的研究结果具有可比性，但不同国家之间存在一些差异，这些差异与物理治疗行业的发展水平、社会心理和流行病学状况有关。医护人员是最容易患与工作相关肌肉骨骼疾病的职业类别之一，因为他们直接接触患者，这通常需要付出巨大的体力，长时间以不协调的姿势抬起和转移患者、进行重复动作、关节用力以及手工技术过载。
