Work-related musculoskeletal disorders significantly impact the job performance and quality of life of nursing personnel in China, necessitating an understanding of their prevalence and risk factors to enhance occupational health and improve medical safety. To systematically evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders among clinical nurses in China. Systematic literature review and meta-analysis. A computerized search was conducted on databases, including the China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database, Wanfang Database, China Biomedical Literature Database, Weipu Database, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and CINAHL, covering studies from inception to February 28, 2024, addressing the risk factors for work-related musculoskeletal disorders among clinical nursing professionals in China. The meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 and Stata 14 software. The analysis included 23 articles, involving a total of 21,042 cases, and revealed a prevalence rate of 79 % (95 % CI: 73 %–84 %) for work-related musculoskeletal disorders among clinical nursing staff in China. Subgroup analysis revealed that the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders was highest among those with length of service >15 years, at 87 %; the 31–40 age group had a higher prevalence than other age groups, at 85 %; female nurses exhibited a prevalence rate of 80 %, surpassing male nurses at 77 %, while surgical nurses had a higher prevalence rate (83 %) than those in other departments. The most affected body parts were the neck (58 %), waist (57 %), shoulders (49 %), and back (35 %). Identified risk factors for work-related musculoskeletal disorders among clinical nurses in China included age >35 years (OR = 1.69, 95 % CI: 1.16–2.45), length of service ≥10 years (OR = 3.30, 95 % CI: 1.84–5.92), marital status (married) (OR = 2.19, 95 % CI: 1.91–2.50), heavy workload (OR = 2.46, 95 % CI: 1.25–4.83), weekly work hours >40 h (OR = 1.50, 95 % CI: 1.34–1.67), daily work hours >8 h (OR = 1.71, 95 % CI: 1.32–2.21), strong sense of work fatigue (OR = 1.47, 95 % CI: 1.22–1.76), and high night shift frequency (OR = 1.81, 95 % CI: 1.62–2.02). Regular physical exercise was found to be a protective factor (OR = 0.68, 95 % CI: 0.56–0.82). The overall prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders among clinical nursing staff in China was 79 %. Age >35 years, length of service ≥10 years, marital status (married), heavy workload, weekly work hours >40 h, daily work hours >8 h, strong sense of work fatigue, and night shift frequency were identified as risk factors. Nursing administrators and staff can take proactive measures against the aforementioned factors to reduce the risk of illness and ensure the safety of medical care. PROSPERO: CRD42023479433.
