Abstrakt:	Both mechanical and psychological overload are inherent to the work of nurses and paramedics, resulting spondylogenic pain. Aim of the Study: To identify potential risk factors influencing the prevalence of non-specific cervical spine pain in professionally active nurses and paramedics. Material and Methods: 324 nurses (53.2% of the total) and 285 paramedics (46.8%) were included in the study-609 people in total. The study was carried out using an auditorium survey technique supervised by the researchers. The methods used were: Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire, a spinal pain questionnaire validated according to IEA guidelines, a short version of the IPAQ and the author's survey questionnaire, concerning sociodemographic data, chronic diseases including metabolic syndrome (MetS). A univariate logistic regression model was used in the statistical analysis. The level of statistical significance was taken as p < 0.05. Results: Recurrent NP was significantly more common in paramedics compared to nurses (29.5 % vs. 9.3 %; p < 0.0001). In a univariate logistic regression model, the risk of NP was significantly increased by: length of service > 15 years ( p < 0.024), presence of: low back pain ( p < 0.0001), type 2 diabetes ( p = 0.013), hypertension ( p < 0.001), depression ( p < 0.01). Of the modifiable factors, the risk of NP was significantly increased by high physical activity and short sleep <7 h ( p < 0.001). Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.
