If skeletal system does not have a correct form in childhood, certainly person will face many problems in the later stages of life. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of skeletal disorders in primary school students in Abadan, 2015.
Materials and Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted on 383 primary school students in Abadan, Iran, which were selected by cluster sampling method. Data was collected by checkerboard and a demographic questionnaire. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software version 22 with descriptive methods and Chi-square test.
Results
The most common skeletal disorder in female and male students was drooping shoulders (81.7%) and scoliosis (85.4%). The overall prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders was significantly related to gender and age (P<0.05).
Conclusion
Due to high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in schoolchildren, screening programs in schools has been recommended for prevention. To reduce the rate of musculoskeletal disorders in students of primary school, identification and follow up of students at early stages of disorders seems a necessary solution.- انتشار مقاله: 14-10-1394

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background
Sitting on inappropriate benches, as well as the poor posture (body position) during the years of growth, can lead to spinal disorders, fatigue and discomfort in students. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between features of desks and chairs and prevalence of some musculoskeletal disorders in primary school students in Abadan.
Materials and Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2015 in the city of Abadan- South West of Iran; for which, 383 primary school students were selected and studied through cluster sampling method. Data were collected by the checkered board and researcher-made questionnaire. Features and dimensions of desks and chairs of students were recorded and evaluated based on their condition (being standard or not). Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS, version 22; and then, descriptive statistics and Chi-square test were conducted.
Results
Study results showed that about 56.1% of the desks and chairs in under study schools were non-standard. It found that drooping shoulder (85.4%) and scoliosis (81.7%) were the more prevalent disorders and back straight (1.6%) was the least frequent disorder. There was a significant relationship between the variable of non-standard desks and chairs and prevalence of drooping shoulders (P=0.001), scoliosis (P= 0.04), kyphosis (P=0.007) and lordosis (P=0.002) disorders in students.
Conclusion
The non-standard-sized desks and chairs increase the prevalence of skeletal disorders in schoolchildren. Therefore, it is essential to pay attention to design and build standard classroom desks and chairs, which are best, adjust to students’ physics.- انتشار مقاله: 14-07-1395
