Methods: an exploratory, quantitative, cross-sectional study carried out with nurses, using a sociodemographic questionnaire, WHOQOL-BREF and the Nordic Musculoskeletal Symptoms Questionnaire. Statistical analysis used the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences statistical program, applying chi-square test, Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test.
Results: the sample consisted of 66 nurses, the majority of whom were women (86.4%), married (71.2%) and had a mean age of 37.23 years. When assessing QoL, the physical domain obtained the lowest average (55.74), followed by the psychological domain (60.67). Regarding musculoskeletal symptoms, pain in the lower back was the most cited (75.80%).
Conclusions: the knowledge that nurses have about quality of life shows that it is influenced by muscle pain, having another employment relationship and the use of psychotropic drugs.
