INTRODUCTION
Working in closed wards at hospitals during night-time shifts and using electronic health records may raise the risk of dry eye disease in nurses.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the current study was to assess the prevalence and associated factors of dry eye disease among hospital nurses in the North West Bank, Palestine.
METHODS
A descriptive cross-sectional study. The study included 300 nurses who work at hospitals in the North West Bank, Palestine. The Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire on dry eye disease was used to estimate the prevalence of symptomatic dry eye disease.
RESULTS
The percentage of dry eye disease prevalence among study participants was 62% with an OSDI score of >13 (mild to moderate and severe OSDI status). Nurses who wore contact lenses worked during the night-time, and worked in the intensive care unit were more likely to report significantly higher OSDI scores ( < .05). Moreover, gender, smoking, and computer use were not statistically associated with dry eye disease ( > .05).
CONCLUSION
Symptomatic dry eye disease is one of the most common ocular diseases among hospital nurses in Palestine.
引言
护士在医院夜间封闭病房工作并使用电子健康记录可能会增加患干眼症的风险。
目的
本研究旨在评估巴勒斯坦约旦河西岸医院护士中干眼症的患病率及相关因素。
方法
一项描述性横断面研究。该研究纳入了300名在巴勒斯坦约旦河西岸医院工作的护士。使用干眼症的眼表疾病指数（OSDI）问卷来估计有症状的干眼症患病率。
结果
研究参与者中干眼症患病率为62%，OSDI评分>13（轻度至中度和重度OSDI状态）。佩戴隐形眼镜、夜间工作以及在重症监护病房工作的护士报告的OSDI评分显著更高（P<0.05）。此外，性别、吸烟和使用电脑与干眼症无统计学关联（P>0.05）。
结论
有症状的干眼症是巴勒斯坦医院护士中最常见的眼部疾病之一。
