Abstract (English): Objective. To analyze the repercussions of neck pain on the quality of life of health professionals in intensive care units. Methods. Cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational study, carried out with 94 health professionals (21 nurses, 13 physical therapists and 60 nursing technicians) in Intensive Care Units of two mediumsized hospitals in a municipality in the far south of Brazil. An instrument containing variables of sociodemographic and work environment characterization was applied; the Neck Bournemouth Questionnaire (NBQ) and the WHOQOL-Bref were applied. Results. There was a predominance of female professionals (88.3%), white (78.8%), aged 30 to 39 years (34.1%), with family income between one and two minimum wages (31.9%) and weekly workload between 31 and 40 hours (67%), night shift (54.3%), time of professional experience of one to five years (38.3%) and one job (73.4%). Neck pain and disability showed significant negative correlations with quality of life. The relationship was weak with the physical (r: -0.218; p=0.035) and psychological (r: -0.280; p=0.006) domains, and moderate with social relationships (r: -0.419; p<0.001), environment (r: -0.280; p<0.001) and general quality of life (r: -0.280; p<0.001). Overall quality of life showed a moderate correlation with the feeling of anxiety (r: -0.431; p<0.001) and depression (r: -0.515; p<0.001) of professionals in the last week. Conclusion. Neck pain caused repercussions in the physical, psychological, social, environmental and general quality of life of health professionals in intensive care units. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Estudio transversal, descriptivo y correlacional de 94 profesionales de la salud (21 enfermeros, 13 fisioterapeutas y 60 técnicos de enfermería) de las unidades de cuidados intensivos de dos hospitales de tamaño medio de un municipio del extremo sur de Brasil. Se aplicó un instrumento que contenía variables sociodemográficas y de caracterización del ambiente de trabajo; el Cuestionario Neck Bournemouth (NBQ) y el WHOQOL-Bref. Resultados.

El dolor cervical y las incapacidades laborales mostraron correlaciones negativas significativas con la calidad de vida: la relación fue débil con los dominios físico (r: -0.218; p=0.035) y psicológico (r: -0.280; p=0.006), y moderada con las relaciones sociales (r: -0.419; p<0.001), el entorno (r: -0.280; p<0.001) y la calidad de vida general (r: -0.280; p<0.001). La calidad de vida global mostró una correlación moderada con los sentimientos de ansiedad (r: -0.431; p<0.001) y depresión (r: -0.515; p<0.001) de los profesionales en la última semana. Conclusión. El dolor cervical repercute en la calidad de vida física, psicológica, social, ambiental y general de los profesionales sanitarios de las unidades de cuidados intensivos. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
