Abstract:
This study aimed to determined the effect of neonatal intensive care nurses\' attitudes towards palliative care on death anxiety and burnout. This was an analytic cross-sectional study conducted with 215 neonatal intensive care nurses working a children\'s hospital with Turkey\'s largest NICU bed capacity. The mean Neonatal Palliative Care Attitude Scale total score was 3.04 ± 0.78, and the mean scores of the organization, resources, and clinician subscales were 3.16 ± 0.86, 2.87 ± 0.80, and 3.10 ± 0.97, respectively. The participants\' mean Death Anxiety Scale score was 57.65 ± 21.46, and the mean Burnout Inventory score was 39.21 ± 17.61. The organization subscale explained 17% of the variance in death anxiety, and the organization and resources subscales explained 31% of the variance in burnout. Neonatal intensive care nurses\' palliative care attitudes are moderate; they face obstacles in providing and improving their attitudes in this field. The high level of obstacles increases nurses\' death anxiety and burnout.
摘要:
本研究旨在确定新生儿重症监护护士对姑息治疗的态度对死亡焦虑和倦怠的影响。这是一项横断面分析研究,对215名新生儿重症监护护士在一家儿童医院工作,拥有土耳其最大的NICU床位。新生儿姑息治疗态度量表总分平均为3.04±0.78,资源,和临床医生分量表分别为3.16±0.86、2.87±0.80和3.10±0.97。参与者的平均死亡焦虑量表得分为57.65±21.46,平均倦怠量表得分为39.21±17.61。组织分量表解释了死亡焦虑中17%的变异,组织和资源分量表解释了31%的倦怠差异。新生儿重症监护护士的姑息治疗态度是温和的;他们在提供和改善这一领域的态度方面面临障碍。高水平的障碍增加了护士的死亡焦虑和倦怠。
