Fatigue negatively affects the performance of intensive care nurses. Factors contributing to the fatigue experienced by nurses include lifestyle, psychological status, work organization and sleep problems.
To determine the level of fatigue among nurses working in intensive care units and the related factors.
This descriptive study was conducted with 102 nurses working in intensive care units in the West Black Sea Region of Turkey. Data were collected between February and May 2014 using a personal information form, the Visual Analogue Scale for Fatigue (VAS-F), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index.
The intensive care nurses in the study were found to be experiencing fatigue. Significant correlations were observed between scores on the VAS-F Fatigue and anxiety (p=0.01), depression (p=0.002), and sleep quality (p<0.001).
Anxiety, depression and quality of sleep were significantly affected by the intensive care nurses' levels of fatigue. These results can be of benefit in taking measures which may be used to reduce fatigue in nurses, especially the fatigue related to work organization and social life.

确定重症监护病房护士的疲劳程度及相关因素。
本描述性研究对土耳其西黑海地区重症监护病房的102名护士进行。2014年2月至5月期间,使用个人信息表、疲劳视觉模拟量表(VAS-F)、医院焦虑抑郁量表和匹兹堡睡眠质量指数收集数据。
研究中的重症监护护士存在疲劳现象。VAS-F疲劳评分与焦虑(p = 0.01)、抑郁(p = 0.002)和睡眠质量(p < 0.001)之间存在显著相关性。
重症监护护士的疲劳程度对焦虑、抑郁和睡眠质量有显著影响。这些结果有助于采取措施减轻护士的疲劳,尤其是与工作安排和社会生活相关的疲劳。
