Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris |
Musculoskeletal pain is amongst the most prevalent health issues in today's society.
University students are particularly impacted by issues brought on by musculoskeletal
pain. Thus, the main aim of this study is to identify the pattern of musculoskeletal
pain among public university students. A cross sectional study was carried out in
public university. Participants were university students who completed structured
questionnaire on the topic of musculoskeletal pain and postural awareness. The first
part of the questionnaire was self-administered regarding their demographic
information. The second section of the questionnaire was the Nordic Musculoskeletal
Questionnaire (NMQ) to determine the site of pain. The third section was Postural
Awareness Scale Questionnaire (PAS) to identify their postural awareness level. A
total of 110 public university students responded to the questionnaire consisting of
43.60% male and 56.40% female students. Lower back (46.4%) and shoulders
(40.9%) are the most frequently reported in the last 12 months. Meanwhile, lower
back (33.6%) and shoulders (32.7%) in the last 7 days. Between both genders, female
students reported more cases in musculoskeletal pain compared to male students.
Postural awareness and musculoskeletal pain has shown a significant result (p |
