To explore the levels of mobile phone addiction and burnout and their relationships among novice nurses.
A cross-sectional investigation design.
Questionnaires were distributed to 400 novice nurses in five public hospitals in China. A total of 366 participants completed the survey. Data collected in 2020 were analysed by using descriptive statistics, an independent t test and Pearson's correlation analysis.
The results showed that the frequency of nursing adverse events was associated with higher level of mobile phone addiction in novice nurses, and 52.46% of the participants (N = 366) presented a high level of occupational burnout. Moreover, the results indicated that there was a positive correlation between the novice nurses' mobile phone addiction level and burnout (r = .33, p < .01).
The level of mobile phone addiction may affect nursing adverse events and nurses' burnout. Education on novice nurses' mobile phone use seems necessary to ensure patient safety and burnout prevention.
Findings of this study expanded important knowledge about mobile phone addiction and its potential influence on nursing safety and nurse burnout and may place significant implications to staff nurse management and in-service education.
探讨新手护士手机成瘾和职业倦怠的水平及其之间的关系。
横断面调查设计。
对中国五家公立医院的 400 名新手护士进行问卷调查。共有 366 名参与者完成了调查。2020 年收集的数据采用描述性统计、独立 t 检验和 Pearson 相关分析进行分析。
结果表明,护理不良事件的发生频率与新手护士手机成瘾程度呈正相关,其中 52.46%(N=366)的参与者表现出较高的职业倦怠水平。此外,结果表明,新手护士手机成瘾程度与倦怠呈正相关(r=.33,p<.01)。
手机成瘾程度可能会影响护理不良事件和护士的倦怠。对新手护士手机使用情况进行教育似乎是必要的,以确保患者安全和预防倦怠。
本研究的结果扩展了有关手机成瘾及其对护理安全和护士倦怠的潜在影响的重要知识,可能对护士管理和在职教育产生重大影响。
