Abstract

BackgroundBurnout is a widespread occupational phenomenon among nurses with significant adverse outcomes for nurses, patients, and society. It is thus important and urgent to understand burnout and its risk factors to guide interventions. This study aimed to examine the level of burnout and explore its individual and environmental correlates.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted in Hunan, China. A total of 623 hepatological surgery nurses completed an online survey (response rate: 72.78%). Burnout was measured using the standard Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Information on individual factors and environmental factors was collected by self-designed questionnaires.ResultsThe scores of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal achievement in nurse burnout were 30 (26–34), 11 (8–14), and 23 (20–26) respectively. The prevalence of high burnout ranged from 52.81% for emotional exhaustion to 90.37% for decreased personal achievement. The three dimensions of burnout shared common correlates such as self-rated physical health and working environment, while also having additional unique correlates such as overwork, satisfaction with income, and age.ConclusionHepatological surgery nurses in Hunan Province are suffering from high levels of burnout, which requires public attention and urgent interventions. Improvement of the physical health and working environment of nurses may be the most beneficial intervention measures to tackle various dimensions of burnout, while other targeted measures are also needed for each specific dimension.
