About this trial
This observational cross-sectional study aims to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among Egyptian students in the Faculty of Applied Arts. Using the Arabic version of the extended Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ-E), the study will assess the prevalence, distribution, and associated factors of musculoskeletal symptoms over the last 12 months and 7 days. A sample of 250 participants, aged 20-22 years and of both genders, will be recruited. Exclusion criteria include obesity, pregnancy, history of neuropathy, unstable medical conditions, or trauma-related musculoskeletal problems. The results will provide insights into MSD prevalence and help guide interventions for this population.
