Background: The burnout phenomenon is a complex and multidimensional reality and also a common metaphor for a state of extreme psychophysical exhaustion that is usually related to work. Objectives: The goal of this study was to evaluate nursing burnout in 371 registered nurses at both governmental and private hospitals in Shiraz, Iran. Patients and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that evaluated nursing burnout using the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Independent sample T-test and one-way analysis of variance were performed to determine the association between demographic factors, the nurses' working environment, and nurse burnout. Results:The results of this study showed that nurses in internal medicine wards, at staff positions, and on rotating shifts in governmental hospitals have a high rate of total burnout (P < 0.05). In contrast, nurses with less than five years of work experience have a high rate of reduced personal accomplishment (P < 0.05). Also, nurses with 6 -15 years of work experience reported the highest incidence of emotional exhaustion (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Burnout is associated with some specific demographic and environmental features. To reduce and prevent burnout, nursing leadership should focus on personal accomplishments in nurses with little work experience, especially for nurses in internal medicine wards, on rotating shifts, and on staff wards. In addition, policy makers at higher levels should also consider nursing burnout in governmental hospitals.

“…Medidas encaminadas al desarrollo de este sentimiento de justicia serían la implementación de modelos de liderazgo (28) o la orientación hacia los objetivos (29) . Del mismo modo que en estudios previos (18,30) se observa que la edad de los profesionales, la sintomatología física o enfermedades crónicas, y el estado civil influyen en el engagement y en el síndrome de burnout en el presente estudio. Las relaciones de las sub-escalas que componen el engagement con la situación laboral del cónyuge no ha sido analizada en los estudio consultados, pero su asociación parece lógica debido al estrés psicosocial que esta situación puede generar.…”

Materiales y Método: Estudio descriptivo, transversal, con abordaje cuantitativo, en el que participaron 305 profesionales de enfermería. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo, correlaciones y pruebas paramétricas bivariadas, ANOVA y T-Student. Resultados: La mayoría de los participantes eran mujeres, con pareja estable e hijos, con edad media de 44,98 años (DT 10,86). El 35,4% de la muestra presenta altos niveles de engagement (altos niveles de energía, implicación y eficacia). El estado civil, la situación laboral del cónyuge y padecer enfermedades crónicas se relaciona con los niveles de eficacia; las actividades de ocio se relacionan con los niveles de energía e implicación. La valoración del clima laboral se relaciona con las tres áreas del engagement; la edad, el tiempo en la unidad de trabajo, los años como enfermera y el tiempo en un puesto de dirección se relacionan con la implicación. Conclusiones: La población estudiada presenta altos niveles de engagement laboral y congruencia entre las sub-escalas de la vida laboral y la organización, con la excepción de la sub-escala de justicia, puesto que los individuos encuestados creen que la organización los trata de forma injusta.Palabras clave: Enfermeras Clínicas; Personal de Enfermería; /enfermería; Salud Laboral; Satisfacción en el Trabajo ABSTRACT:Objectives: To determine the level of engagementy the relationship with the six areas of work life in nursing professionals in the city of Huesca (Spain) and its association with socio-demographic and labor variables.

“…Compassion fatigue can be understood as nurses 'losing their nurturing ability toward patients' , toward colleagues, and towa rd themselves. Compassion fatigue (emotional exhaustion, burnout, lack of compassion and connection) can negatively affect professional and personal relationships and work performance (Hunsaker et al, 2015;Berger et al, 2015;Beaumont et al, 2016). Further, clinicians experiencing burnout are more likely to depersonalize patients such as referring to them as their disease (Bauer-Wu & Fontaine, 2015).…”
