Objective: Our research study aimed to determine the relationship between musculoskeletal complaints and caregiver overload in persons with disabilities cared for in a Physical Therapy Centre in Lima, 2022. Method: A quantitative, basic, correlational, non-experimental design and hypothetical-deductive method was used. The sample consisted of 50 caregivers of people with disabilities, where the standardised Kuorinka Nordic questionnaire and the Zarit scale were used as instruments. Results: It was possible to determine the relationship between musculoskeletal complaints and caregiver overload in people with disabilities cared for in a physical therapy centre in Lima,2022. The significance level was p=0.001. Conclusion: Musculoskeletal complaints are significantly related to the overload of caregivers of people with disabilities, showing that high work demands cause muscular and joint ailments, thus triggering emotional and physical stress, generating social limitations and impairing their quality of life.
