    Author: Haley E.
    Journal: Can Nurse; 1994 Jan; 90(1):57-8. PubMed ID: 8313347.
    Abstract:
    In 1990, Canadian hospitals reported 30,487 time-loss injuries. Fifty-three percent were sustained by nurses. Almost half were back injuries. Back injury is now recognized as one of the major reasons for ill-health retirement from nursing. Not only is it the most frequent injury sustained by nurses. It also is the most debilitating.
