Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Nursing is pivotal to healthcare delivery but is often associated with high levels of organizational stress. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to investigate the associations between exposure to organizational stressors, measured using the Health and Safety Executive Management Standards Indicator Tool, and psychosomatic complaints among nurses in a medium-sized city hospital in northeastern Italy.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 215 nurses participated in the study, completing self-report questionnaires assessing organizational stressors and the prevalence of psychosomatic complaints experienced over the preceding six months.
UNASSIGNED: Significant associations were observed between various organizational stressors and psychosomatic complaints among nurses. Specifically, the Relationships factor emerged as a significant predictor of palpitations, irritability, anxiety, physical and mental tiredness, and headache. Additionally, Demands and Managers\' support were identified as significant predictors of specific psychosomatic complaints.
UNASSIGNED: This study highlights the critical role of addressing organizational stressors, particularly those related to interpersonal relationships, in promoting nurse well-being and optimizing patient care delivery. Despite its strengths, including the use of a well-established measurement tool and a comprehensive assessment of psychosomatic complaints, limitations such as the cross-sectional design and self-report measures warrant consideration. By prioritizing supportive work environments and implementing targeted interventions, healthcare organizations can cultivate a culture of well-being among nurses, ultimately enhancing the quality and safety of healthcare delivery.

共有215名护士参与了这项研究,完成自我报告问卷,评估组织应激源和过去六个月心身投诉的患病率。
观察到护士的各种组织压力源与心身投诉之间存在显着关联。具体来说,关系因子是心悸的重要预测因子,烦躁,焦虑,身心疲惫,和头痛。此外,需求和管理人员的支持被确定为特定心身投诉的重要预测因子。
这项研究强调了解决组织压力源的关键作用,特别是那些与人际关系有关的人,在促进护士福祉和优化患者护理交付方面。尽管它的优势,包括使用完善的测量工具和对心身投诉的全面评估,横截面设计和自我报告措施等限制值得考虑。通过优先考虑支持性工作环境并实施有针对性的干预措施,医疗机构可以培养护士的幸福文化,最终提高医疗保健服务的质量和安全性。
