A Thorough Analysis of Burnout Among Nursing Professionals During Pregnancy
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The rapidly changing COVID-19 epidemic situation has raised concerns about burnout among healthcare workers in China. Burnout, a social-psychological disorder characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and decreased personal accomplishment during work, can significantly affect nursing professionals. This study investigates the burnout experienced by pregnant nurses and its relationship with perceived organizational support (POS), coping style (CS), depression, anxiety and stress (DAS), and work and family conflict (WAFC). A survey of over 10,000 nurses in China during the COVID-19 pandemic revealed a high prevalence of burnout, with 17.9% of female nurses experiencing high levels of burnout. Pregnancy, as a significant life event, adds further stress to pregnant nurses as they juggle multiple roles and responsibilities. This study aims to bridge the research gap regarding nurse burnout during pregnancy and its associated factors. The findings will inform strategies to prevent and reduce burnout, safeguard the physical and mental well-being of this vital nursing workforce, and ensure the provision of quality healthcare.
