BackgroundNursing students may exhibit the characteristics of resistance to stress, such as hardiness, which can reduce the risk of burnout. However, we found only one published study about these phenomena among nursing students. Thus, we investigated the association between hardiness and burnout in such students.MethodsAn analytic, cross-sectional study was conducted among 570 nursing students from three Brazilian universities. Data were collected relating to sociodemographic characteristics, hardiness, and burnout, which we analyzed using inferential statistics.ResultsWe observed that 64.04% of nursing students in the sample had a high level of emotional exhaustion, 35.79% had a high level of cynicism, and 87.72% had a low level of professional efficacy: these are dimensions of burnout. We also found that 48.77% had a high level of control, 61.40% a high level of commitment, and 35.44% a high level of challenge: these are dimensions of hardiness. Only 24.74% of the students experienced burnout, and 21.93% met the criteria for a hardy personality. There was a statistically significant difference between the frequency of hardiness and burnout (p = 0.033), with 68.00% of hardy students not exhibiting burnout.ConclusionsAlthough nursing students live with educational stressors, burnout was not preponderant in our sample students; this may be linked to hardiness. Thus, given its benefits to student life and health, we recommend the development of strategies to promote hardiness among nursing students.
Os Programas de Residência Multiprofissional buscam romper com os paradigmas em relação à formação de profissionais para o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) e contribuir para qualificar os serviços de saúde a partir de ações inovadoras. Entretanto, características específicas desses programas podem agregar estressores aos residentes e, levarem à Sídrome de Burnout. Dessa forma, verificou-se a ocorrência da Síndrome de Burnout nos Residentes Multiprofissionais da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria. Este estudo trata-se de um estudo descritivo, transversal e quantitativo. Aplicaram-se um formulário de dados sociodemográficos e o Versão Human Service Survey do Marlash Burnout Inventory em 37 residentes, entre abril e junho de 2011. Observou-se que 37,84% apresentaram Alta Exaustão Emocional; 43,24%, Alta Despersonalização; e 48,65%, Baixa Realização Profissional. Na associação dos domínios, verificou-se que 27% apresentaram indicativo para Síndrome de Burnout. Os residentes pesquisados estão expostos aos estressores da profissão e da formação, o que pode favorecer a ocorrência da síndrome nesses profissionais.
Objective: To identify associations between high-stress and burnout syndrome in multidisciplinary residents from a federal university in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Method: This is an analytical, cross-sectional and quantitative study. A socio-demographic questionnaire, the Work Stress Scale and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Health Services Survey (MBI-HSS) were applied to 37 residents between April and June 2011. P-values<0.05 were considered statistically significant.Results: We verified that 48.65% of the residents experienced high-stress. When associating the MBI-HSS subscales, we verified that 27% of the residents showed some indication of burnout syndrome. There was a statistically significant correlation (p=0.00, r=0.68) between a highstress and burnout. Conclusions: High-stress was confirmed as being a predictor of burnout syndrome among multidisciplinary residents. Therefore, we propose that intervention studies be conducted in order to change such contexts.
Aim: to measure occupational stress and identify Coping Strategies used by nurses of Adult Intensive Care Unit and Intensive Cardiac Unit from a Rio Grande do Sul public hospital. Method: it's a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study, conducted with 12 nurses between March and April 2010. For data collection, we used a form to sociodemographic and professional characterization, Nurses Stress Inventory (NSI) and Occupational Coping Scale (OCS). Results: we found that 41.66% of nurses have high stress and 58.34% low stress. Activities related to "Interpersonal Relations" are the most stressful and Control was the factor most used in coping of stress. Conclusions: know stressors can help institutions and professionals to rethink their work process in order to become daily life more productive and less stressful, what will reflect in quality of care provided.
Aim: to verify the association between stress and Hardiness among Multidisciplinary Residents of a Rio Grande do Sul public University. Method: this is an analytical, cross-sectional and quantitative study. We applied a sociodemographic data form, the Work Stress Scale and Hardiness Scale in 37 residents between April and June 2011. P values <0,05 were considered significant. Results: we observed that 51,35% of residents presented low stress and 48,65% high stress. Hardiness Personality was observed in 24,32% of professionals, and, of these, 21,62% had low stress intensity. There was significant and negative correlation (p = 0,001, r = -0,5105) between Hardiness and stress intensity. Conclusions: these results confirm the hypothesis that Hardy individuals have
