Abstract (2. Language): 
Objectives: The aim of this research was to determine the lifetime and point prevalence of low back pain and to investigate the correlation between risk factors and low back pain seen among nurses working in Cerrahpafla Medical Faculty Hospital. Methods: The study consisted of 478 nurses working in Cerrahpafla Medical Faculty Hospital. Data was collected by using questionnaires consisting of 20 questions. Queried correlation with risk factors and low back pain were investigated, the lifetime and point prevalence rates of low back pain was determined. The data was analyzed in SPSS by using descriptive statistics and chi-squared test. Results: The lifetime prevalance was 84%, point prevalance was 63%. There was a statistical correlation between point prevalance of low back pain and body mass index, more working years in nursing and number of patients per day. Likewise in singles, nurses living alone in lodgings or at home with daily walking habit point prevalence rate was significantly lower. There was a statistical correlation between lifetime prevalance of low back pain and age and more working years. Conclusion: The prevalence of low back pain among nurses working in Cerrahpafla Medical Faculty Hospital was higher than the normal population. To reduce the incidence of low back pain in nurses we recommend that the training programs –especially low back schools– should be organized.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Amaç: İstanbul Üniversitesi Cerrahpaşa Tıp Fakültesi’nde görev yapan hemşirelerde yaşam boyu bel ağrısı prevalans oranının ve nokta prevalans hızının belirlenmesi ve risk faktörleri ile bel ağrısı arasında ilişkinin araştırılması. Yöntem: Cerrahpaşa Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesinde çalışan 478 hemşireye 20 soruluk risk faktörlerini içeren anket uygulanmıştır. Sorgulanan risk faktörleri ile bel ağrısı korelasyonu araştırılması yaşam boyu bel ağrısı prevalans oranı ve nokta prevalans hızı belirlenmiştir. Verilerin analizi, SPSS istatistiksel paket programında tanımlayıcı analizler ve ki-kare testi kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Hemşirelerde yaşam boyu bel ağrısı prevalansı %84, nokta prevalans hızı %63 olarak bulundu. Artmış vücut kitle indeksi, uzun çalışma yılı, günlük takip edilen hasta sayısı ile nokta prevalans arasında anlamlı ilişki saptandı. Aynı şekilde bekarlarda, lojmanda veya evde tek başına yaşayanlarda, iş yerine yürüyerek gelenlerde nokta prevalans hızı anlamlı olarak daha düşüktü. Yaşam boyu prevalans değerinin ise yaş ve uzun çalışma yılı ile olan ilişkisi istatistiksel olarak anlamlı idi. Sonuç: Bu çalışma ile fakülte hastanesinde görev yapan hemşirelerde bel ağrısı prevalans oranlarının normal popülasyona göre daha yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır. Hemşirelerde bel ağrısı sıklığının azaltılmasında başta bel okulu olmak üzere bel ağrıları ile ilgili eğitim faaliyetlerinin artırılması gerektiğini düşünmekteyiz.
