Nurses with depression are not only likely to suffer themselves, but it may have an impact on their coworkers and potentially the quality of care they provide. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of depression and its association with burnout in cardiac nurses. A group of 400 cardiac nurses (361 women and 39 men) was enrolled. The standardized tools such as Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Patient Health Questionaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used. A high level of professional burnout regarding emotional exhaustion was observed in 53.3% of nurses, high depersonalization in 52.5%, and low personal accomplishment in 72.8%. PHQ-9 and BDI were shown to correlate significantly and positively with all three MBI subscales ( < 0.05). High depressive symptoms and occupational burnout were correlated with depression ( < 0.05). In conclusion, nurses were found to have high levels of depression and professional burnout, which may have resulted in a negative impact on the quality of patient care. Identification of burnout in cardiac nurses is necessary to consider interventions to prevent stress and depression.
患有抑郁症的护士不仅可能自身受苦，还可能对同事产生影响，并可能影响他们提供的护理质量。本研究旨在确定抑郁的患病率及其与心脏科护士职业倦怠的关系。招募了一组 400 名心脏科护士（361 名女性和 39 名男性）。使用了标准化工具，如 Maslach 职业倦怠量表（MBI）、贝克抑郁量表（BDI）和患者健康问卷-9（PHQ-9）。研究观察到 53.3%的护士表现出高水平的职业倦怠，情绪疲惫；52.5%的护士表现出高度的去人格化；72.8%的护士表现出低个人成就感。PHQ-9 和 BDI 与 MBI 的所有三个分量表均呈显著正相关（<0.05）。高抑郁症状和职业倦怠与抑郁相关（<0.05）。总之，研究发现护士存在较高的抑郁和职业倦怠水平，这可能对患者护理质量产生负面影响。有必要识别心脏科护士的倦怠情况，以考虑采取干预措施来预防压力和抑郁。
