Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal system disorders are the most important and frequent cause of work-related health issues. Chronic pain due to musculoskeletal disorders can give rise to disability, anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbances resulting in poor quality of life. These problems are frequently encountered in many business areas, especially in the field of healthcare. This study aimed to investigate the location and severity of musculoskeletal disorders of healthcare personnel working in the province of Ankara and how these problems relate to their lifestyle.Methods: An online questionnaire was applied to healthcare personnel working in the province of Ankara between November and December 2020. The questionnaire consisted of 14 questions about general information and 11 additional SF-36 questions.Results: A total of 285 participants were evaluated. Physical functioning (PF) and role physical (RP) parameters of those who had been in the same position for less than eight years were significantly higher compared to those who had been in the same position for more than eight years. There was a statistically significant increase in PF and social function parameters with the increase in educational status. Male gender PF, RP, role emotional, and pain parameters were significantly higher than female gender.Conclusion: This study revealed that the age, gender, education level, number of personnel in the institution where they work, total working time, and working in the same position for many years affect the quality of life in healthcare personnel. In addition, the location and frequency of musculoskeletal pain of healthcare personnel were revealed.
