Abstract


Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or CTS for short has a prevalence of between 1% and 5%, with a higher ratio in women with a ratio of 3:1 compared to men. Most of the activities performed by nurses will use excessive and repetitive hand activities. Therefore, nurses have a risk of being disrupted in their daily activities, especially in their activities as nurses due to CTS complaints. The analytic observational method was used for this study to see the events that occurred in the subject without any intervention to the research subject. This study was conducted with a cross sectional research design to see the relationship between age, tenure, work attitude towards CTS complaints in nurses at Dr. Drajat Prawiranegara Serang Hospital. The final total sample size was 120 respondents consisting of nurses from the inpatient unit of RSUD Dr. Drajat Prawiranegara. There was a prevalence of 62.5% of nurses who experienced CTS complaints at Drajat Prawiranegara Serang Hospital. From the results of bivariate analysis, there was no relationship between CTS complaints and age (p = 0.195), tenure (p = 0.689), work attitude (p = 0.423). From the results of the analysis, there was no relationship between age, length of service, and work attitude with CTS complaints in inpatient nurses at Dr. Drajat Prawiranegara Serang Hospital.
