Clinical Trial Summary
This research will be conducted to identify the factors that increase the risk of
musculoskeletal injuries in college students, Hypothesis: Demographic, anthropometric,
postural, sleep quality and physical activity characteristics significantly predicted
musculoskeletal injury.
Description:
An important public health issues for young people, particularly university students is
musculoskeletal injuries.The wound may cause excruciating agony, functional limitations,and
decreased quality of life (Almeida et al.,2013). musculoskeletal injuries have a complicated
etiology, with important roles played by demographics, anthropometric,
psychological,postural, sleep quality, and physical activity variable.To create focused
preventives and intervention measures, it is essential to understand the risk factor of
musculoskeletal injuries among university students.
Questionnaire has been extensively utilized to asses postural risk factor for musculoskeletal
illness such as low back pain. Musculoskeletal injuries have been linked to possible risk
factors related to sleep quality, physical activity in previous study. However it is still
unclear how these factor interact in a complex way and how that affects the likelihood of
musculoskeletal injury.
By examining the association between demographics, anthropometric, phycological, postural,
sleep quality and physical activity in university students,this study seeks to fill this
vacuum in the literature.The results of this study will offer insightfull information that
will help to guide the creation of focused preventives and intervention for this
demographics.
The date will be collected through the use of structure questionnaire the survey will ask
questions on demographics data, psychological aspects, posture, sleep patterns, and level of
physical activity and the participants will be required to complete the 9-test screening
Battery for musculoskeletal damage.
The following resources will be utilized to gather information on various aspects of
musculoskeletal injuries.
Age, gender, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) General health questionnaire (GHQ)
Nordic musculoskeletal questionnaire for posture evaluation (NMQ) Pittsburgh sleep quality
index is used to evaluate sleep quality (pSQI) International physical activity questionnaire
for measuring physical activity (IPAQ) Screening for musculoskeletal injuries:9-test MSK
injury screening Battery
