探讨新冠肺炎突发卫生事件中意大利护士职业倦怠水平的性别内部和性别差异：一项队列观察性研究

背景：本研究的目的是评估从事冠状病毒病（新冠肺炎）患者护理的护士的倦怠综合征。在大流行期间，对在意大利重症监护室（icU）工作的意大利护士进行了一项队列观察性调查研究，2020年3月25日至2020年4月26日调查问卷包含人口统计数据的第一部分，如：性别、经验年限，如果在新冠肺炎大流行事件发生时接受采访的护士已经在icU工作，或者如果由于情况紧急，他/她被转移到在此期间设立的icU，采用Maslach倦怠量表（MBi）问卷对与新冠肺炎危重症患者直接接触的护士的倦怠水平进行评估：291名护士回答了该调查，女性和男性在情绪衰竭方面，女性护士比男性更容易受到这种现象的影响（P＜0.001），对于其他两个维度，两性之间没有统计学上的差异（人格解体：P＝809；个人成就：P＝0 268），无论经验如何，或者护士是否一直在相对的重症监护室工作，由于卫生紧急情况而被转移。同样有趣的是，女性护士之间的倦怠程度趋势，她们比男性护士更容易受到情绪衰竭的影响©2020 Edizioni Minerva Medica在线版http://wwwminervamedica it
