Having more than job and physical exhaustion derived from the job demands considerably overload workers and impair their quality of life (QoL). These factors might interfere with the health of this population of workers reflecting as work-related musculoskeletal disorders.
To investigate the correlation between musculoskeletal symptoms and QoL among workers at the intensive care unit of a public hospital in Teresina, Piauí, Brazil.
Cross-sectional quantitative, observational and analytical study performed with 30 workers at a public hospital ICU. WHOQOL-BREF, the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire and a sample profile instrument were administered by the investigators during the working hours.
86.7% of the sample reported pain in at least one body side, particularly in the knees in the past 7 seven days (23.3%) and in the lower back in the past 12 months (50%). The participants' QoL was reasonable. We found significant moderate correlation between pain and WHOQOL domains physical health (p=0.10) and social relationships (p=0.011) but no correlation with the participants general characteristics.
Occurrence of musculoskeletal symptoms might interfere with the QoL, social life and performance at work of ICU workers.
工作负担过重以及因工作需求导致的身体疲劳会给员工带来极大压力，损害他们的生活质量（QoL）。这些因素可能会影响这一群体的健康，表现为与工作相关的肌肉骨骼疾病。
调查巴西皮奥伊州特雷西纳市一家公立医院重症监护室工作人员的肌肉骨骼症状与生活质量之间的相关性。
对一家公立医院重症监护室的30名工作人员进行横断面定量、观察性和分析性研究。研究人员在工作时间内发放了世界卫生组织生活质量简表（WHOQOL-BREF）、北欧肌肉骨骼问卷和一份样本概况工具。
86.7%的样本报告在过去7天内至少身体一侧疼痛，尤其是膝盖（23.3%），在过去12个月内下背部疼痛（50%）。参与者的生活质量处于合理水平。我们发现疼痛与WHOQOL身体健域（p=0.10）和社会关系域（p=0.011）之间存在显著的中度相关性，但与参与者的一般特征无关。
肌肉骨骼症状的出现可能会影响重症监护室工作人员的生活质量、社交生活和工作表现。
