“…Other studies in the literature indicated that nurses' age (Taycan et al 2006, Akbolat & Isık 2008, Sekol & Kim 2014, job satisfaction (Kalliath & Morris 2002, Happell et al 2003, marital status (Taycan et al 2006, Sahin et al 2008) and the number of assigned patients affected burnout level (Wyatt & Harrison 2010). However, other studies indicated that age (Kaya et al 2010, Aytekin & Kurt 2014 and marital status (Kaya et al 2010, Aytekin & Kurt 2014 did not have any effect on burnout level. Although we do not have research to support these ideas, it is possible that the influence of age on the burnout level might be related to the advantages of the acquisition of experience and enhanced workplace problem solving.…”

“…However, this weak association between personal success and work satisfaction may occur since nurses may lack positive feedback in the workplace. Researchers indicated that nurses working in neonatal intensive care units (Aytekin & Kurt 2014) and emergency service (Kavlu & Pınar 2009) had medium level scores of internal, external and total job satisfaction. Akpınar and Tas (2011) concluded that as the internal satisfaction levels of emergency service employees increases, emotional exhaustion and depersonalisation levels decrease, and positive, though weak, relationships between personal accomplishment and perceptions of internal satisfaction and general satisfaction were noted.…”

Background Intensive care units (ICUs) are noisy environments, which may have negative psychological effects on nurses. Aims and objectives To investigate the effects of the noise level of ICUs on nurses' burnout, job satisfaction, anxiety, psychological symptoms and general psychopathology level. Design A descriptive and correlational study. Methods The study was conducted with 150 intensive care nurses. A Type 2250‐L Brüel & Kjær hand‐held sound level meter was used for noise measurement. A Nurse Information Form, the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Minnesora Satisfaction Questionnaire, Self‐Report Inventory and Symptom Checklist‐90 Revised were used for data collection. Results The highest levels of noise (71 dB(A) and above) were measured in the neonatal, neurology and cardiovascular surgery ICUs. It was observed that noise level affected extrinsic satisfaction (F = 3·704; p = 0·027) and trait anxiety (F = 3·868; p = 0·023) of nurses. Conclusions Noise levels in ICUs are well above the recommended levels, and this affects nurses' job satisfaction and anxiety levels. Relevance to clinical practice More studies on the effects of noise levels on the physical and mental states of nurses working in ICUs are needed. Increased quality of patient care can be achieved by providing healthy working conditions for nurses working in special units such as ICUs.
