Abstract
Aim of our study was to assess the impact of vacation on urinary symptoms in health care workers. Between March 2018 to October 2019 a survey was carried out by enrolling health care system workers in three centers. Demographic and clinical characteristics of health care workers (i.e. age, smoking status, medical history) were collected. Urinary symptoms work related quality of life and health were assessed before and after two weeks’ vacation with validated questionnaires: Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Short Form (OABqsf), nocturia episodes,Work-relatedQuality of Life (WRQOL) and SF-36 questionnaires. As well, NS workers (NSWs), defined as working at least one time aweek from 8 pmto 8 am,were compared to traditional workers (TWs). Wilcoxon rank test was performed to test significant differences before and after vacation. Mann Whitney test was performed to assess differences between NSWs and TWs.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
