The purpose of this research is to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders and their association with psychological stress among medical students at Taif University, Saudi Arabia.
A total of 640 medical students were selected by multistage cluster sampling. The data were collected by trained students using a standardized Nordic questionnaire and 10-k questionnaire. Statistical analysis was carried out using the statistical package (SPSS.21). Standardized Nordic questionnaire and 10-k questionnaire besides questionnaire assessing sociodemographic characteristics (age, gender, study year, weight, height, smoking, marital status, chronic disease, and educational degree) were used.
Among 640 medical students, 45.9% males and 54.1% females reported musculoskeletal pain, it was more prevalent among fourth - and sixth year students, in the last 7 days, neck pain was the highest site of complaint (33.4%) followed by low back pain (15.1%) and shoulder pain (12.8%). Prevention of work was highest due to neck pain (27.7%) and low back (25.1%) followed by knees (19.1%), the stress rate was highest in the second year (67.8%) and third year (67.3%) students followed by the sixth year (65.8%) students.
Musculoskeletal disorders are a common health problem reported by more than half of medical students, with a significant association with females and preclinical students. Stress is a common psychological problem that affects two-thirds of medical students. However, we found a nonsignificant association between the onset of musculoskeletal disorders and the level of stress among medical students.
本研究旨在确定沙特阿拉伯塔伊夫大学医学生肌肉骨骼疾病的患病率及其与心理压力的关联。
通过多阶段整群抽样选取了640名医学生。数据由经过培训的学生使用标准化的北欧问卷和10 - k问卷收集。使用统计软件包（SPSS.21）进行统计分析。除了评估社会人口学特征（年龄、性别、学习年份、体重、身高、吸烟、婚姻状况、慢性病和教育程度）的问卷外，还使用了标准化的北欧问卷和10 - k问卷。
在640名医学生中，45.9%的男性和54.1%的女性报告有肌肉骨骼疼痛，在四年级和六年级学生中更为普遍。在过去7天里，颈部疼痛是最常抱怨的部位（33.4%），其次是下背部疼痛（15.1%）和肩部疼痛（12.8%）。因颈部疼痛（27.7%）和下背部疼痛（25.1%）导致的工作妨碍最高，其次是膝盖（19.1%）。压力率在二年级（67.8%）和三年级（67.3%）学生中最高，其次是六年级（65.8%）学生。
肌肉骨骼疾病是一半以上医学生报告的常见健康问题，与女性和临床前学生有显著关联。压力是影响三分之二医学生的常见心理问题。然而，我们发现医学生肌肉骨骼疾病的发病与压力水平之间无显著关联。
