Abstract: (608 Views)
Background: Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are damage to the tissue of the musculoskeletal system that disrupt the flow and functionality of the human body. The current study evaluated changes in years of life lost (YLL) due to MSDs and mortality rates associated with MSDs in the 16 year-period from 2004 to 2019.
Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, YLL for MSDs for the years 2004-2019 in Fars province was calculated using the YLL template from World Health Organization (WHO), and the number of total deaths due to MSDs in Fars province was obtained from the electronic population-based death registration system (EDRS).
Results: Between the years 2004 and 2019, 746 deaths due to MSDs occurred in Fars province. The crude mortality rate increased in men from 1.29 (per 100,000 population) in 2004 to 1.47 in 2019 (p-value for trend=0.057) and in women from 1.18 in 2004 to 2.58 in 2019 (p-value for trend <0.001). Total YLL due to MSDs over the same period was 4,690 and 6,852 (0.14 and 0.22 per 1000 population) in men and women, respectively (female/male gender ratio =1.46).
Conclusion: The findings revealed that YLL due to MSDs was higher in females than males. The highest and lowest YLL due to MSDs was seen in the age group of 40-49 and 0-9 years, respectively. To minimize the effects of MSDs, further adjustment in the policies and regulations tailored for appropriate age groups and populations is recommended.
