Risk Factors for Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders Among Intensive Care Unit Nurses in China: A Structural Equation Model Approach
PurposeThis study explored the direct and indirect effects of risk factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs) in nurses working in intensive care units (ICUs).MethodsA cross-sectional study design was used. ICU nurses from 28 tertiary hospitals in the Hunan and Guangdong provinces participated in a survey conducted via a self-reported online questionnaire. A structural equation model was used to fit the data and to evaluate associations among WRMDs and risk factors.ResultsValid questionnaire samples were submitted by 984 ICU nurses. The prevalence of WRMDs within the previous year among ICU nurses was 96.8%. A valid structural equation model was constructed, and a good fit was shown: Chi-square?value/degrees of freedom?= 2.248; comparative fit index?= .931; normal fit index?= .905; goodness-of-fit index?= .978; adjusted goodness-of-fit index?= .966; and root mean square error of approximation?= .036. All regression coefficients for direct effect reached significant levels (critical ratio?>?1.96 andp?
