Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of interpersonal interactions as stressor and stress reliever was highlighted in this study. Participants described the importance of social support in ameliorating the impact of stress but also described a reticence to acknowledge stress for fear of being judged as not suited to the rigors of ICU nursing. This study indicates that nurses perceive stress to affect many facets of performance with subsequent impact on patient care. Professional and legal duty of care requires nurses to address a known threat to patient care. Therefore, measures to relieve stress in ICU nurses should be explored in future studies. Further research into how social support can be optimized while not undermining the confidence and self-esteem of those receiving it has the capacity to significantly influence the experience of stress and its consequences in ICU nurses.

This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patient-centered, high-quality health care relies on the well-being, health, and safety of health care clinicians. However, alarmingly high rates of clinician burnout in the United States are detrimental to the quality of care being provided, harmful to individuals in the workforce, and costly. It is important to take a systemic approach to address burnout that focuses on the structure, organization, and culture of health care. Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout: A Systems Approach to Professional Well-Being builds upon two groundbreaking reports from the past twenty years, To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System and Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century, which both called attention to the issues around patient safety and quality of care. This report explores the extent, consequences, and contributing factors of clinician burnout and provides a framework for a systems approach to clinician burnout and professional well-being, a research agenda to advance clinician well-being, and recommendations for the field.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a significant difference between patients' and nurses' perceptions of the stimuli experienced by Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients. In addition, it determined if there was a significant relationship between the patients' perceptions of stress and the number of days spent in the ICU, the severity of illness, or whether a patient received an ICU orientation visit. The study was designed as a descriptive survey in which both patients and nurses rated, on a 4 point scale, the intensity of 22 stimuli commonly encountered in the ICU. The subjects were a convenience sample of 20 matched pairs consisting of a patient who had spent at lease 24 hours in the ICU and a nurse who had cared for that patient in the ICU.
