Musculoskeletal disorders increases the insomnia severity in nurses

Objectives To determine prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders and the relationship between insomnia severity among nurses working in a training and research hospital. Material and Methods This descriptive study was carried out with 293 nurses. Cornell musculoskeletal disorders questionnaire for musculoskeletal disorders and insomnia severity index were used to determine the insomnia severity. Results In our study, the severity of the discomfort was mostly moderate and mild in painful areas. There was a significant difference in terms of gender, educational status, marital status, seniority, types of working, and presence of chronic diseases for musculoskeletal disorders in different body regions (p<0.05). It was determined that the threshold level of insomnia was significantly higher in those with musculoskeletal disorders in other body regions except the knee and lower leg region (p<0.05). Conclusion In our study, it was determined that musculoskeletal disorders were common in the upper body areas and the severity of insomnia was at the threshold level. Neck, right shoulder and right upper arm were risky body areas for insomnia.
