Nurses face one of the highest rates of reported workplace violence (WPV). This research examined the prevalence of WPV and demographic, work-related, and adult and childhood abuse histories as risk factors for WPV among 2166 nurses/nursing personnel across four health care institutions in one US metropolitan area.
Using data from an online cross-sectional survey, multivariate logistic regression was utilized to determine risk factors for physical and psychological WPV.
Almost one-third (30%) of nurses/nursing personnel experienced WPV (19.4% physical, 19.9% psychological). Risk factors included being a nurse, white, male, working in the emergency department, older age, longer employment, childhood abuse, and intimate partner violence.
Adult and childhood abuse histories have not been considered in previous large-scale investigations, but were significant risk factors along with other previously identified risk factors for WPV.
护士面临着报告的工作场所暴力(WPV)发生率最高的情况之一。本研究在美国一个大都市区的四个医疗机构的 2166 名护士/护理人员中,调查了 WPV 的流行情况以及人口统计学、与工作相关的、成人和儿童期虐待史作为 WPV 的危险因素。
使用来自在线横断面调查的数据,采用多变量逻辑回归来确定身体和心理 WPV 的危险因素。
近三分之一(30%)的护士/护理人员经历过 WPV(19.4%为身体暴力,19.9%为心理暴力)。危险因素包括护士、白人、男性、在急诊室工作、年龄较大、工作时间较长、儿童期受虐和亲密伴侣暴力。
在以前的大规模调查中,没有考虑成人和儿童期虐待史,但它们是 WPV 的重要危险因素,以及以前确定的其他 WPV 危险因素。
