Abstract

Objective: To estimate the impact of nursing handover on nurses’ mood after the end of the nursing shift report. Methods: A cross-sectional, repeated-measures design study involving a diary questionnaire was conducted during November - December 2019. Data were collected from 125 nurses working in a public hospital in Northern Greece. 375 diaries were returned. Mood change was measured using the UWIST Mood Adjective Checklist instrument that describes three mood factors (Hedonic Tone, Tense Arousal and Energetic Arousal). Results: A significant change in nurses’ mood before and after the nursing handover was reported and more specifically, an increase in positive and a decrease in negative mood state was observed. A change in all mood groups - Hedonic Tone, Tense Arousal and Energetic Arousal was also identified. Nurses with many years of experience who work in internal medicine, increased their Hedonic Tone (P=0.001) and decreased their Tense Arousal (P=0.005). Conclusion: The benefits of nursing handover are long established and is suggested as the most appropriate period of time for nurses to achieve emotional change before leaving from work. Nurses are advised to use the nursing handover as an opportunity to psychologically disengage from work and increase their positive mood.

护理交接对护士情绪的影响

目的:评估护理轮班报告结束后护理交接对护士情绪的影响。方法:在2019年11月至12月期间进行了一项涉及日记问卷的横断面、重复测量设计研究。数据收集自希腊北部一家公立医院的125名护士，归还了375份日记。使用UWIST情绪形容词检查表测量情绪变化，该工具描述了三种情绪因素(享乐语气、紧张唤醒和精力充沛唤醒)。结果:护理交接前后护士的情绪状态发生了显著变化，积极情绪状态有所增加，消极情绪状态有所减少。所有情绪组的变化——快乐基调、紧张唤醒和精力充沛唤醒——也被确定。在内科工作多年的护士，他们的快乐基调增加(P=0.001)，紧张唤醒降低(P=0.005)。结论:护理交接的好处早已确立，是护士在下班前实现情绪转变的最合适时间。建议护士将护理交接作为一个从心理上脱离工作、增加积极情绪的机会。
