Abstract

Background: Currently, there is a global shortage of nurses, which has a negative impact on health institutions, mainly on the quality of care provided. The quality of nursing care depends on several factors, including the nursing practice environment, which has been stated as a fundamental element for the successful functioning of health systems. Scientific evidence shows that favorable practice environments contribute to nurse retention, and unfavorable environments increase nurses' turnover intention. Retaining nurses is essential to ensure the sustainability of healthcare organizations and the quality of nurse care. In the current shortage scenario, this issue has become even more significant.

Objective: This review aims to identify systematic literature reviews that describe the characteristics of nursing practice environments that contribute to nurse retention or turnover intention in hospitals.

Methods: The umbrella review will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis reporting guidelines, and the Preferred Reporting Items for Overviews of Reviews guidelines. A search with indexed terms will be performed in various databases, and two reviewers will identify, select, and extract studies, while a third reviewer will resolve any disagreements.

Results: This protocol provides a structured approach for conducting the review, and the initial searches have identified 440 articles, with no previous protocol or umbrella review identified, underscoring the importance of this research.

Conclusions: This study will enhance the dissemination of scientific evidence regarding nursing practice environments, thereby contributing to an improved understanding of factors affecting nurse retention and turnover intention.

护理实践环境如何影响留任和离职意向：护理实践环境如何影响留任和离职意向：总括审查协议》。

背景：目前，全球护士短缺，这对医疗机构造成了负面影响，主要是对所提供护理的质量。护理质量取决于多个因素，其中包括护理实践环境，而护理实践环境被认为是卫生系统成功运作的基本要素。科学证据表明，良好的执业环境有助于留住护士，而不利的环境则会增加护士的离职意向。留住护士对确保医疗机构的可持续发展和护士护理质量至关重要。在当前护士短缺的情况下，这一问题变得更加重要：本综述旨在确定描述有助于医院护士留任或离职意向的护理实践环境特征的系统性文献综述：综述将遵循乔安娜-布里格斯研究所（Joanna Briggs Institute）的方法、《系统性综述和元分析首选报告项目》（Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis）报告指南以及《综述首选报告项目》（Preferred Reporting Items for Overviews of Reviews）指南。将在各种数据库中使用索引术语进行检索，两名审稿人将识别、选择和提取研究，第三名审稿人将解决任何分歧：本协议为开展综述提供了一种结构化方法，初步检索已发现 440 篇文章，而之前没有发现任何协议或综述，这突出了这项研究的重要性：这项研究将加强有关护理实践环境的科学证据的传播，从而有助于更好地了解影响护士留任和离职意向的因素。
