RESUMO: Objetivo: verificar a prevalência e fatores associados à dor musculoesquelética em estudantes de enfermagem. Método: estudo transversal, realizado em 2014, com 149 estudantes de enfermagem de uma universidade pública no Sul do Brasil. Utilizou-se questionário com questões sociodemográficas, acadêmicas, de saúde e a versão brasileira do Standardized Nordic Questionnaire. A associação foi estimada pela Odds Ratio e seus intervalos de confiança. Resultados: nos últimos sete dias, predominou dor musculoesquelética na região lombar (61,1%) e pescoço (54,4%). Observou-se associação de dor na região do pescoço com o uso de bebida alcoólica (OR=2,84; IC95%=1,29), nas pernas com fazer vivências acadêmicas (OR=2,03; IC95%=1,05-4,00), e nos ombros com não realizar atividade física (OR=2,13; IC95%=1,01-4,45) e não ter tempo para o lazer (OR= 2,08; IC95%= 1,(3)(4)22). Conclusões: devido ao elevado percentual de dor musculoesquelética, faz-se necessária adoção de medidas de prevenção desse agravo ainda na academia. Descritores: Enfermagem; Estudantes de enfermagem; Dor musculoesquelética.

Objective: to assess the association between the presence of perceived stress and reports of musculoskeletal pain among undergraduate health students. Method: a cross-sectional study carried out with undergraduate health students (Nursing, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Speech Therapy, Medicine, Occupational Therapy, and Dentistry) in a public university of southern Brazil. Data collection took place in the period from April to June 2017. An instrument with sociodemographic, habits, health profile, and academic variables was used; as well as the Brazilian version of the Standardized Nordic Questionnaire and the Perceived Stress Scale. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed for the analysis. Results: a total of 792 students took part in the study. The students with a high stress level presented more chances for the occurrence of musculoskeletal pain in the vertebral column region (OR=2.92; 95% CI=1.30-6.55), upper limbs (OR=3.27; 95% CI=1.80-5.92) and lower limbs (OR=3.10; 95% CI=1.81-5.29). The variables “not having time for leisure” and “sometimes having time for leisure” presented higher chances of pain in the vertebral column region (OR=2.92; 95% CI=1.30-6.55), upper limbs (OR=3.27; 95% CI=1.80-5.92) and lower limbs (OR=3.10; 95% CI=1.81-5.29). The variables “not having time for leisure” and “sometimes having time for leisure” presented higher chances of pain in the vertebral (OR=3.11; 95% CI=1.84-5.25), Occupational Therapy (OR=2.57; IC95%=1,51-4,38) and Physiotherapy (OR=1.82; 95% CI=1.00-3.31) and being overweight (OR=1.59; 95% CI=1.09-2.31) presented higher chances of pain in the lower limbs. Conclusion: the association between perceived stress and the occurrence of musculoskeletal pain among the students was evidenced, revealing the importance of implementing programs aiming at the students’ health.

Higher education as the medium for maximum level of training for citizens and professionals seeking social transformation merits a rethinking of pedagogical proposals, particularly if we take into account that learning today is not exclusive to classrooms. There are many stimuli that students have access to when they need to develop a skill or acquire knowledge. Our proposal regarding university social responsibility seeks not only to work towards the transformation of the students and the community involve d but also to provide a space for pedagogical design that adapts to new modalities for the acquisition of knowledge for adult students. In this article we describe a service learning case study: La Huella (“The footprint”), which was carried out by 4 teach ers and a total of 67 students from 6 modules from different degree programs in Business Administration. Their main achievements were to collaborate in the development of a brand with deep links to creative channeling as insertion therapy; the manual crea tion of valuable objects as an expression of a state of human fulfillment, and the development of a Volunteer Program that would support the commercial arm and the promotional strategy of dissemination through social networks.
