The SIN-DME questionnaire is a screening test that aims to collect information on the presence of symptoms related to Musculoskeletal Disorders in the working population of a company or productive organization.

The questionnaire is divided into four domains:

a. Personal information.

In which information on the worker and the post occupied is collected.

b. Habits.

Individual habits are investigated: tobacco consumption and physical activity.

c. Work.

Its purpose is to identify occupational exposure to possible events that could generate AMD.

d. Health status.

A graphic is used to identify, through visual coding, the areas of the body where different symptoms associated with WMSD are present. The worker is asked to IDENTIFY the part of the body where he or she has experienced pain or discomfort.

Then, it is asked about the duration of the pain and the intensity of the type of pain identified. Finally, it is asked about the interference of the symptoms in the activities carried by the worker.
