| Resumo: | The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (ICU) adds a complex of care actions, which are
developed to provide care to patients with serious health problems. In this context,
the nursing team plays an important role, but on the other hand, its members are
subjected to constant occupational risks, which originate from unhealthy and
dangerous conditions, causing serious damage to the health of the nursing
professional. In view of this situation, the present study had the objective of analyzing
the working conditions and the presence of musculoskeletal disorders among nursing
professionals in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. This was a descriptive study that
included quantitative and qualitative techniques such as observations, semistructured interviews and questionnaires (Questionnaire on Working Conditions,
Nordic Questionnaire and a questionnaire containing sociodemographic and
functional information). The sample consisted of 42 nursing technicians and nurses at
the neonatal intensive care unit of the Januário Cicco Maternity School, a university
hospital linked to the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. The results indicate
that the participants of this study are aged between 25 and 55 years, most of them
are married or are in stable union, half have children and work about 30 to 40 hours a
week. With regard to working conditions, the Psychobiological Aspects were the most
critical factor, which lacks measures to eliminate them and / or attenuate them.
Symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders were reported by 95.2% of the participants,
and 50% of the population had two or more symptoms with a moderate severity
index. Almost one-third of the sample reported symptoms in the 12 months and
seven days preceding the withdrawal from the activities, a worrying one, which
requires intervention. The most recurring complaints in the interviewees' speeches
point to problems related to poor working conditions, insufficient numbers of
employees and work overload. The study made it possible to systematize information
that will serve as subsidies for proposing measures aimed at improving the work
environment, which will positively reflect the well-being of nursing professionals and
consequently the reduction of leave, leave or deviation of function. |
