nurses are responsible for taking care of the health of the general public. Nurses´ own health is among the important factors affecting the quality of patient care. Self-Rated Health (SRH) is one of the indicators used extensively in health research for the assessment of the health status of individuals. The present study was conducted to evaluate self-rated health and its relationship with general procrastination in nurses.
the present cross-sectional study was conducted in 2019 on 305 Iranian nurses selected by stratified random sampling. The relationship of self-rated health with procrastination was determined using an ordinal logistic regression analysis after adjustments for personal and occupational factors.
self-rated health was poor/bad in 11.3% of the nurses, fair in 23.7%, good in 34.3% and excellent in 30.7%. After adjustments for personal and occupational factors, a significant relationship was observed between procrastination and self-rated health (OR=0.95; 95%CI 0.92, 0.98).
the results showed an unfavorable health status in nurses. Given the significant relationship between procrastination and poor self-rated health in nurses, it is essential to consider this relationship for improving nurses´ health.
护士负责照顾公众的健康。护士自身的健康是影响患者护理质量的重要因素之一。自评健康(SRH)是健康研究中广泛用于评估个体健康状况的指标之一。本研究旨在评估护士的自评健康状况及其与普遍拖延之间的关系。
本横断面研究于 2019 年对 305 名伊朗护士进行,采用分层随机抽样。在调整个人和职业因素后,使用有序逻辑回归分析确定自评健康与拖延之间的关系。
11.3%的护士自评健康状况差/差,23.7%为一般,34.3%为良好,30.7%为优秀。在调整个人和职业因素后,拖延与自评健康之间存在显著关系(OR=0.95;95%CI 0.92,0.98)。
结果表明护士的健康状况不佳。鉴于拖延与护士自评健康状况不佳之间存在显著关系,有必要考虑这种关系,以改善护士的健康状况。
