This cross-sectional study, conducted from August to September 2020, examined nurses' stress, self-efficacy and nursing intentions when caring for COVID-19 patients and identified the predictors of nursing intentions during the pandemic.
The COVID-19 outbreak has increased nurses' role expectations and imposed a heavy social responsibility. In particular, frontline nurses are under significant stress when caring for patients during a novel epidemic because of the lack of accurate information.
A total of 232 nurses with experience in providing care for suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients from seven large hospitals in three cities in Korea completed the Perceived Stress Scale, Self-Efficacy Scale and Predictive Nursing Intention Scale.
Multiple regression confirmed that completing COVID-19-related education and self-efficacy were significant predictors of nursing intentions during the current pandemic; the regression model explained 22.0% of the variance in nursing intentions.
Stress did not affect frontline nurses' nursing intentions towards COVID-19 patient care, but completing COVID-19-related education and higher self-efficacy predicted improved nursing intentions.
Nurse leaders should recognize that to improve nursing intentions during a novel infection outbreak, infection-related education should be provided and strategies to improve self-efficacy should be implemented.
这项横断面研究于2020年8月至9月进行，调查了护士在护理新冠肺炎患者时的压力、自我效能感和护理意愿，并确定了疫情期间护理意愿的预测因素。
新冠肺炎疫情增加了对护士角色的期望，并赋予了沉重的社会责任。特别是，由于缺乏准确信息，一线护士在新型疫情期间护理患者时承受着巨大压力。
来自韩国三个城市七家大型医院的232名有护理疑似或确诊新冠肺炎患者经验的护士完成了感知压力量表、自我效能感量表和预测护理意愿量表。
多元回归证实，完成新冠肺炎相关教育和自我效能感是当前疫情期间护理意愿的重要预测因素；回归模型解释了护理意愿变异的22.0%。
压力并未影响一线护士对新冠肺炎患者护理的意愿，但完成新冠肺炎相关教育和更高的自我效能感预示着护理意愿的提高。
护士领导者应认识到，为了在新型感染爆发期间提高护理意愿，应提供感染相关教育并实施提高自我效能感的策略。
