There is a high prevalence of moderate-to-high levels of chronic stress among nurses, as well as an occurrence of musculoskeletal disorders.
To evaluate the effectiveness of chair massage to reduce chronic stress and musculoskeletal pain in the Oncology Nursing team.
Two teaching cancer hospitals, one public and the other private, in São Paulo city, Brazil.
A total of 60 women from the Oncology Nursing team.
A randomized controlled trial divided into two groups: chair massage and control without intervention.
The massage group received two chair massage sessions lasting 15 minutes, twice a week, for three weeks.
Reduction of stress and pain measured by the List of Signs and Symptoms (LSS) and the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), respectively.
The average age was 32 (± 5.3) years. There was a reduction of stress measured by the LSS with a statistical difference in the group-time interaction ( < .001), with a Cohen's value of 1.21 between groups. The BPI analysis showed a statistically significant difference in the group-time interaction for general activity ( < .008), mood ( < .03), work ( < .000), and sleep ( = .03), with reduced pain interference in these components.
Chair massage reduced stress and pain interference in the team's daily life activities, bringing a positive impact in the context of work stress and pain in Oncology nursing professionals.
护士中慢性应激水平处于中度至高度的情况很普遍，同时肌肉骨骼疾病也时有发生。
评估坐椅式按摩对减轻肿瘤护理团队慢性应激和肌肉骨骼疼痛的效果。
巴西圣保罗市的两家教学癌症医院，一家公立，一家私立。
肿瘤护理团队的60名女性。
一项随机对照试验，分为两组：坐椅式按摩组和无干预对照组。
按摩组接受每周两次、每次持续15分钟的坐椅式按摩，共进行三周。
分别通过体征和症状清单（LSS）及简明疼痛量表（BPI）来衡量应激和疼痛的减轻情况。
平均年龄为32（±5.3）岁。LSS测量显示应激有所减轻，组间时间交互作用有统计学差异（P<0.001），两组间的科恩d值为1.21。BPI分析显示，在一般活动（P<0.008）、情绪（P<0.03）、工作（P<0.000）和睡眠（P = 0.03）方面，组间时间交互作用有统计学差异，这些方面的疼痛干扰均有所减轻。
坐椅式按摩减轻了团队日常生活活动中的应激和疼痛干扰，对肿瘤护理专业人员的工作压力和疼痛状况产生了积极影响。
