Abstract

Background: In an effort to combat burnout, a study investigates Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) training for nurses. The goal is to reduce stress and improve job satisfaction, ultimately enhancing patient care. These findings may inspire the development of mindfulness-based support systems for healthcare professionals to promote overall well-being in the workplace.

Materials and methods: A single-blinded, randomized controlled trial with 60 emergency medical center nurses was conducted to assess the effectiveness of an eight-session MBSR program in reducing stress and burnout. The randomization process, utilizing sealed envelopes, ensured unbiased allocation to intervention or control groups. The training program included group sessions focused on meditation, yoga, and discussions, with participants receiving educational materials and CDs for home practice. Collected data included demographics, Maslach Burnout Inventory, and Occupational Stress Questionnaire results. Statistical analysis, utilizing SPSS version 21, featured Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Mann-Whitney U, and Wilcoxon tests to evaluate outcomes.

Results: Following MBSR Training, the intervention group displayed statistically significant differences in all occupational stress subscales compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Post-intervention, the intervention group also exhibited significant differences in burnout subscale scores (P < 0.001) compared to the control group.

Conclusion: MBSR can boost resilience and job satisfaction, enhancing patient care. Healthcare organizations should integrate MBSR programs for nursing staff well-being and combat stress and burnout. Research should probe long-term impacts and effective delivery methods for sustained stress relief in nursing.

Trial registration: This study has registered in Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials by the number of IRCT20131112015390N5 on Jun 2022.

正念减压培训对护士的职业倦怠和压力有影响吗？随机对照试验。

背景：为了消除职业倦怠，一项研究调查了针对护士的正念减压（MBSR）培训。目的是减轻压力，提高工作满意度，最终加强对病人的护理。这些发现可能会激励医护人员开发基于正念的支持系统，以促进工作场所的整体健康：对 60 名急诊医疗中心的护士进行了单盲随机对照试验，以评估为期八节的 MBSR 课程在减轻压力和职业倦怠方面的效果。随机化过程采用密封信封，确保无偏见地分配到干预组或对照组。培训计划包括以冥想、瑜伽和讨论为重点的小组课程，参与者会收到教材和用于家庭练习的光盘。收集的数据包括人口统计学、马斯拉赫职业倦怠量表和职业压力问卷调查结果。统计分析采用 SPSS 21 版本，通过 Kolmogorov-Smirnov、Mann-Whitney U 和 Wilcoxon 检验来评估结果：结果：在接受 MBSR 训练后，干预组与对照组相比，在所有职业压力分量表上都显示出了统计学上的显著差异（P 结论：MBSR 可以提高员工的抗压能力：MBSR 可以提高抗压能力和工作满意度，从而加强对患者的护理。医疗机构应整合 MBSR 计划，促进护理人员的健康，消除压力和职业倦怠。研究应探究其对护理工作的长期影响和持续缓解压力的有效方法：本研究已于 2022 年 6 月在伊朗临床试验注册中心注册，注册号为 IRCT20131112015390N5。
