Abstract

Purpose: Estimate the effect of nursing, shift, and patient characteristics on patients' aggression.

Design and methods: Follow-up study on a closed psychiatric ward was performed to estimate the effect of nursing team characteristics and patient characteristics on the incidence of aggression.

Findings: The incidence of aggression (n = 802 in sample) was lower in teams with >75% male nurses. Teams scoring high on extraversion experienced more verbal aggression and teams scoring high on neuroticism experienced more physical aggression. Younger patients and/or involuntarily admitted patients were more frequently aggressive.

Practice implications: These findings could stimulate support for nurses to prevent aggression.

封闭式精神科病房护理团队特征与患者攻击行为的关系。

目的:评估护理、轮班和患者特征对患者攻击行为的影响。设计与方法:对一间封闭精神科病房进行随访研究，评估护理团队特征和患者特征对攻击发生率的影响。结果:在男性护士占75%以上的团队中，攻击发生率(样本n = 802)较低。外向性得分高的团队有更多的言语攻击，而神经质得分高的团队有更多的肢体攻击。年轻患者和/或非自愿入院的患者更具攻击性。实践启示:这些发现可以激发对护士预防攻击的支持。
