“…A recent study comparing the demand-control model and the effort ERI found a greater association between ERI and the musculoskeletal problems. 83 The authors concluded that using both models in a musculoskeletal context provides little added value and suggested using the ERI. 83 Our results support this conclusion in a psychological distress context.…”

“…Studies demonstrated that relations of PSFs and physical exhaustion have likely increased the risk of MSDs in nurses. High perceived workload, role conflicts, low job satisfaction, poor social support, time pressure, low justice and respect in the workplace were among those factors constantly effected these disorders in several studies [7,21,[30][31][32][33].…”

Nurses exposure many risk factors in the hospital setting. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) is a common health problem between work related disabilities and injuries in nurses. The aim of this review was to examine the prevalence of MSDs in nurses and also summarize risk factors, outcomes, solutions. An electronic search was conducted in Pub Med in January 2017. Publications in the last ten years were researched using the key words: "Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders" and "Nurses". The initial electronic search identified 111 papers. Some articles were excluded since they were not related to our study topic (7 articles were review, 15 of them were related to the roles of nurses in some musculoskeletal disorders, 14 articles were about nurses who working outside the hospital or new graduated/student, 28 articles addressed work related other health problems, 3 of them were related to hospital ergonomics and risk factors and 7 articles were interventions studies). Three papers were not reached to full text or abstract. The total number of remaining articles was 34 and all of them were included the study. It was considered that reported musculoskeletal disorders in nurses were limited to the past 12 months. It had been found that the prevalence of MSDs varied between 33.0% and 88.0%. The most commonly affected body regions were lower back, shoulder, neck, knees, wrists/hands. Lower back pain complaints were found to vary between 49.0% and 84.0%. The findings indicated that the work related musculoskeletal disorders associated with cumulative trauma and repetitive tasks included: lifting, transferring or repositioning, prolonged standing and also awkward postures (stooping, bending and reaching). These work-related health problems in nurses were significantly associated with age, gender, body mass index, ward, shift working and working in a hospital. Studies showed that musculoskeletal disorders were most seen among the operation room nurses and intensive care nurses. Also, MSDs were found to be the main causes of absenteeism, demanding a change of duty or job and visiting a physician. The MSDs was more prevalent occupational health problem among nurses. The prevalence of MSDs was associated with both demographic characteristics of nurses and hospitals' organizational factors. It was confirmed that making ergonomics interventions could improve the working environment in the hospital.

“…The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is considered to be a stressful work environment for nurses, since a growing body of evidence suggests several work-related stress sources (1,2) . Prolonged work-related stress has been linked with psychological disturbances that affect nurses' physical and mental health status (1,3) , along with altered professional performance, mediated through emotional exhaustion, vicarious trauma, fatigue, and professional burnout (4,5) .…”

Objective:To systematically review evidence on dysfunctional psychological responses of Intensive Care Units nurses (ICUNs), with focus on anxiety and depressive symptoms and related factors. Method: A literature search was performed in CINAHL, PubMed and Scopus databases, from 1999 to present, along with a critical appraisal and synthesis of all relevant data. The following key words, separately and in combination, were used: "mental status" "depressive symptoms" "anxiety" "ICU nurses" "PTSD" "burnout" "compassion fatigue" "psychological distress". Results: Thirteen quantitative studies in English and Greek were included. The results suggested increased psychological burden in ICUNs compared to other nursing specialties, as well as to the general population. Conclusions: Studies investigating psychological responses of ICUNs are limited, internationally. Future longitudinal and intervention studies will contribute to a better understanding of the phenomenon.
