OBJECTIVES
To examine the prevalence of chronic pain and the associated factors among nursing students.
METHODS
This study is a descriptive, cross-sectional. The subjects were 1684 nursing students who were selected from the universities of medical sciences in Iran via cluster sampling in 2019. Data were collected using a three-part questionnaire: a demographic characteristics survey, characteristics of chronic pain, and a pain scale.
RESULTS
The majority of the students were female (62.1%) and single (87%).The mean age of the participants was 22.4±2.96 years. The results of data analysis showed that 30.2% of the students suffered from chronic pain. The areas which were most affected by pain were: head (31.24%), abdomen (11.98%), and the back (9.23%). 56.4% of the nursing students declared the origin of their pain to be unknown, 22.7% attributed their pain to migraine, and 6.48% reported spinal disorders to be the cause of their pain. There was a significant relationship between the students' chronic pain and the variables of age (higher in the 29-and-above age group), marital status (higher in married subjects), and education (higher in postgraduates).
CONCLUSIONS
A relatively large number of nursing students suffer from chronic pains. Nursing schools should contribute to improving students' knowledge of chronic pain prevention and management.
目的
调查护理专业学生慢性疼痛的患病率及其相关因素。
方法
本研究为描述性横断面研究。研究对象为2019年通过整群抽样从伊朗医科大学选取的1684名护理专业学生。数据通过一份由三部分组成的问卷收集：人口统计学特征调查、慢性疼痛特征及疼痛量表。
结果
大多数学生为女性（62.1%）且未婚（87%）。参与者的平均年龄为22.4±2.96岁。数据分析结果显示，30.2%的学生患有慢性疼痛。受疼痛影响最严重的部位为：头部（31.24%）、腹部（11.98%）和背部（9.23%）。56.4%的护理专业学生称其疼痛原因不明，22.7%将疼痛归因于偏头痛，6.48%报告脊柱疾病是其疼痛的原因。学生的慢性疼痛与年龄（29岁及以上年龄组较高）、婚姻状况（已婚者较高）和教育程度（研究生较高）变量之间存在显著关系。
结论
相当数量的护理专业学生患有慢性疼痛。护理学院应有助于提高学生对慢性疼痛预防和管理的认识。
