Resumen
GASPAR-CALVO, Elena et al. Musculoesqueletic diseases in working population: subjects' profile and pharmacological management. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.1, pp.9-22. Epub 01-Mayo-2023. ISSN 3020-1160.
Objectives:
The present study describes the musculoskeletal diseases (MSD) of a cohort of manual workers, as well as the use of drugs indicated for pain control. Retrospective observational study carried out within the framework of the Aragon Workers' Health Study (AWHS). The prevalence of the different EMEs, the rate of use of drugs used in the treatment of pain and the number of defined daily doses (DDD) consumed have been analysed. 15.4% of the workers studied were diagnosed with at least one EME. Of them, 54.1% were overweight and 74.0% were older than 55 years. The utilization rate of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) was 69.5%, and of non-opioid analgesics, 29.9%. The data presented show the high use and, in some cases, the continuous use of analgesic and anti-inflammatory treatments.
