Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI) or Work-Related Ostomuscular Disorders (WRMD) are musculoskeletal disorders. Nursing is one of the categories of workers most affected, due to the inherent functions they perform in their daily activities. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a distance education program of prevention in RIS/WRMD on the quality of life of a nursing group.
Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) or Work-Related Musculoskeletaldisorders (WRMD) are the names given to skeletal muscle disorders that mainly affect the upper limbs, the scapular region and the neck. One of the most affected categories is nursing workers who present health problems inherent to the function they perform in their daily activities. Due to this peculiarity, several studies are focused on the occupational risks of nursing workers in the hospital environment. However, It was not found in the literature studies that suggests strategies to prevent and improve the worker's quality of life. Distance education comes as a differential. It has power in interactive media and collaborative learning beyond self-learning and mass media. This research project proposes to carry out a randomized clinical trial where the intervention group will receive a Prevention Course in RSI/WRMD in the distance education modality and the control group will receive Educational Lectures on Prevention in RSI /WRMD, both groups will be composed by a nursing team from the Clinical Hospital of Porto Alegre.
