This cross-sectional study evaluated the work capacity of 195 nurses at a university hospital, from a calculation of sample size with a Confidence Interval (CI) of 95%. The data was collected by means of the Work Capacity Index (WCI) instrument and analyzed by statistical analysis. 94.5% of the sample was made up of women; the average age was of 42.6 years (sd=8.5); 66.5% had partners and 76.7% were educated to post-graduate level. 36.0% worked the night shift; 28.4% the morning shift and 20.8% the afternoon shift. The average score given to work capacity was Good (41.8 points) and there was a significant correlation with pay (p-value<0.05), satisfaction with workplace (p-value=0.001) and feeling valued by the institution (p-value=0.003). The group which carried out family activities showed higher scores in the WCI compared to those who did not (p-value=0.009). The nurses presented differing sociodemographic and work aspects, with a high capacity for work.
这项横断面研究通过计算95%置信区间的样本量，评估了一家大学医院195名护士的工作能力。数据通过工作能力指数（WCI）工具收集，并进行统计分析。样本中94.5%为女性；平均年龄为42.6岁（标准差=8.5）；66.5%有伴侣，76.7%拥有研究生学历。36.0%上夜班；28.4%上早班，20.8%上中班。工作能力的平均得分良好（41.8分），且与薪酬（p值<0.05）、对工作场所的满意度（p值=0.001）以及被机构重视的感觉（p值=0.003）存在显著相关性。与未开展家庭活动的护士相比，开展家庭活动的护士在WCI中得分更高（p值=0.009）。护士们呈现出不同的社会人口学和工作方面特征，工作能力较强。
