Resumo: | ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Hospitals integrate several risks posed by physical, chemical, psychosocial and ergonomic factors, which may be noxious for different healthcare professionals. This study aimed at evaluating the level of physical activity, the presence of musculoskeletal risk factors and the incidence of low back pain among nursing professionals of a hospital Materials and Sterilization Center. METHODS: Sample was made up of 56 individuals of both genders, working for the Associação Beneficente de Campo Grande/MS-Hospital Santa Casa. Participants were divided in two groups: G1 (insufficiently active, n=27) and G2 (sufficiently active, n=29). In addition to the level of physical activity, anthropometric data, incidence of pain and functional incapacity, flexibility and muscle resistance were evaluated. RESULTS: The incidence of low back pain was lower in G2 (13 cases; 44.8%) as compared to G1 (24 cases; 88.9%). Body mass index, pain intensity and functional incapacity index were lower for G2. Time of physical activity was lower in G1. Abdominal muscles resistance was higher in G2. CONCLUSION: In nursing professionals, the level of physical activity influences the presence of low back pain, pain intensity and functional incapacity index. |
