Work from home-related musculoskeletal pain during the COVID-19 pandemic: A rapid review.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This rapid review explores the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain symptoms associated with work from home conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods

We conducted a rapid review across three databases (i.e., PubMed, Medline, and CINAHL) for observational studies that report on the musculoskeletal functions among individuals placed in a work from home setup due to the COVID-19 pandemic, published between December 2019-August 2021. Two independent review authors searched, appraised, and extracted data from the articles included in the final review. A descriptive approach was used to synthesize the narrative evidence.

Results

Forty-four articles were initially identified. A total of six (n = 6) studies met the full inclusion criteria and were included. Amo
