Abstract(s)
As lesões musculoesqueléticas são patologias que afetam diversas estruturas do
corpo, variam entre dor ligeira e situações clínicas mais complexas. São lesões com
potencial para conduzir a uma incapacidade transitória ou permanente para o trabalho,
provocando uma sobrecarga para os profissionais de saúde, organizações e sociedade,
que se traduzem na diminuição da qualidade de vida e num impacto económico
individual, institucional e social.
Esta dissertação tem como objetivo geral analisar a dor e o desconforto
associado às Lesões Musculoesqueléticas Relacionadas com o Trabalho em enfermeiros
tripulantes de ambulância de suporte imediato de vida.
Trata-se de um estudo transversal, descritivo-correlacional com uma
abordagem quantitativa.
A colheita de dados foi realizada durante a segunda quinzena de maio e a
primeira de junho de 2024 e o instrumento de colheita de dados foi o Questionário
Nórdico Musculoesquelético, adaptado para a população portuguesa.
Destaca-se neste estudo a elevada ocorrência de sintomatologia
musculoesquelética (96,7%). A zona lombar é a região do corpo com sintomatologia
autorreferida mais elevada (77,2%), que comparativamente com a realidade
internacional é igualmente das mais elevadas.
Face ao exposto, torna-se fundamental formular e implementar estratégias de
prevenção, identificação e reabilitação, destacando-se assim contributo do enfermeiro
especialista em enfermagem de reabilitação na criação de um projeto de intervenção
direcionado à prevenção e redução da incidência da sintomatologia, bem como, de um
levantamento das condições laborais que concorrem para o maior grau de risco de
desenvolvimento desta sintomatologia, de modo a serem criadas medidas de mitigação
dos fatores identificados.
Musculoskeletal disorders are pathologies that affect various structures of the body, ranging from mild pain to more complex clinical situations. These are injuries with the potential to lead to a transitory or permanent incapacity for work, causing an overload for health professionals, organizations and society and which translate into a decrease in quality of life and a individual, institutional and social economic impact. The general objective of this dissertation is to analyze the pain and discomfort associated with Work-Related Musculoskeletal Injuries in Immediate Life Support ambulance nurses. This is a cross-sectional, descriptive-correlational study with a quantitative approach. Data collection was carried out during the second half of May and the first half of June 2024.The data collection instrument was the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire, adapted to the portuguese population. In this study, the high occurrence of musculoskeletal symptoms (96.7%) stands out. The Lumbar Region is the body segment with the highest self-reported symptoms (77.2%), just like the ones reported in international studies. It is imperative to formulate and implement prevention, identification and rehabilitation strategies, highlighting the contribution of the Rehabilitation Nursing Specialist Nurse in the creation of a intervention project aimed at preventing and reducing the incidence of symptoms, as well as a survey of the working conditions that contribute to the higher degree of risk of developing this symptomatology, in order to create measures to mitigate the identified facts.
