Burnout is a syndrome containing three dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduction of personal accomplishment. Nurses are exposed to professional burnout (PB) due to their exposure to physical, mental, and emotional stressors, which can lead to numerous complications in their personal, social, and organizational life. This study aimed to define the prevalence of PB amongst nurses working in hospitals in Tabriz and to detect its related effective factors in 2010.
This is a cross-sectional analytical study conducted on all selected nurses working in hospitals in Tabriz. The questionnaires were filled and returned by 712 subjects after taking their consent. The data were collected by a questionnaire including questions on demographic characteristics and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Independent t-test was employed to compare mean quantitative variables in two groups of individuals with and without PB. Chi-square test was also adopted to compare the prevalence of PB in levels of qualitative variables. Logistic regression test was employed for multiple analyses of PB related factors. In this analysis, variables in level of 0.2 which had an association with PB as a single variable were entered to the model.
Among the nurses taking part in the study, 156 (21.9%, CI 95%: 19.0-25.1) suffered from PB based on its definition. The risk of burnout is increased by 1.12-folds for each overwork night shift. Higher education increases professional burnout by 3.17-folds.
The prevalence of burnout among nurses in Tabriz was revealed. Night shift and education level were shown to have an association with professional burnout.
职业倦怠是一种包含情感耗竭、去个性化和个人成就感降低三个维度的综合征。护士由于面临身体、心理和情感压力源而容易出现职业倦怠（PB），这可能会在他们的个人、社会和组织生活中引发众多并发症。本研究旨在确定2010年大不里士医院护士中职业倦怠的患病率，并检测其相关影响因素。
这是一项对大不里士医院所有选定护士进行的横断面分析研究。712名受试者在征得同意后填写并返还了问卷。通过一份包括人口统计学特征问题和马氏职业倦怠量表（MBI）的问卷收集数据。采用独立t检验比较有和没有职业倦怠的两组个体的平均定量变量。还采用卡方检验比较定性变量水平上职业倦怠的患病率。采用逻辑回归检验对职业倦怠相关因素进行多因素分析。在该分析中，将作为单一变量与职业倦怠相关的0.2水平的变量纳入模型。
在参与研究的护士中，根据定义，有156人（21.9%，95%置信区间：19.0 - 25.1）患有职业倦怠。每个通宵夜班使职业倦怠风险增加1.12倍。高等教育使职业倦怠增加3.17倍。
揭示了大不里士护士中职业倦怠的患病率。夜班和教育水平与职业倦怠有关。
