ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study aimed to identify multidimensional factors influencing burnout in intensive care unit(ICU) nurses.METHODS:
A descriptive cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected during February 2016 from a convenience sample of 222 tertiary hospital ICU nurses and analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis.RESULTS:
Burnout correlated positively with compassion fatigue (CF)(r=.37, p < .001), and negatively with compassion satisfaction (CS)(r=-.66, p < .001). The regression model explained 57% of the variance in burnout. For individual characteristics in the model, perceived health status (β=-.27, p < .001) and gender (β=.14, p=.028) were the most influential factors for ICU nurses' burnout. In the model with added work-related characteristics, nursing environment (β=-.22, p=.001), perceived health status (β=-.20, p=.001), and satisfaction with department (β=-.19, p=.007) were the most influential factors. Finally, for the model with psychological characteristics added, CS (β=-.56, p < .001) and CF (β=.35, p < .001) were the most influential factors.CONCLUSION:
Results reveal that most ICU nurses have a moderate level of CF and a moderate to high level of CS and burnout, and that individual, work-related and psychological factors are relevant in ICU nurses' burnout. Programs or interventions to reduce burnout should be developed taking into account these multidimensional factors.
