Comprehensive investigation of ergonomic challenges and predictors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders among intensive care unit nurses of Western India through convergent mixed methods study
The findings underscore urgent need for targeted interventions to address risk factors associated with WRMSDs, including ergonomic training, workplace modifications, and education programs to enhance risk awareness and preventive behaviours. Future research should focus on developing and evaluating comprehensive interventions that integrate both physical and work environment factors to effectively mitigate WRMSDs among ICU nurses.
