Abstract

Introduction: Poor nursing performance is considered a threat to patient safety, affecting the quality of care provided and ultimately impacting patient outcomes.

Objectives: The main aim of this study was to identify the predictors of nursing performance.

Methods: A cross-sectional predictive design was used. A convenient sampling technique was used to recruit 251 emergency nurses in three health sectors. They were assessed using the secondary traumatic stress scale and the nursing performance scale. Data were collected between June and August 2022.

Results: Nurses experienced severe levels of secondary traumatic stress (M = 57.9, SD = 14.94). The nursing performance level was below average (M = 27.48, SD = 9.36), and the mental performance subscale received the lowest rating (M = 5.82, SD = 2.69). There was a strong negative association between the secondary traumatic stress total score and the total score of nursing performance (r = -.77). Additionally, factors such as high body mass index, smoking, the presence of chronic diseases, working overtime, and high levels of secondary traumatic stress were identified as significant predictors of nursing performance.

Conclusion: It is recommended that emergency nurses be provided with treatment programs and interventions to reduce their secondary traumatic stress to improve their performance, thereby ensuring high-quality patient care.

急诊护士临床表现的预测因素:一项横断面研究
导言:护理绩效不佳被认为是对患者安全的威胁,会影响所提供护理的质量,并最终影响患者的治疗效果:本研究的主要目的是确定护理绩效的预测因素:方法:采用横断面预测设计。采用方便抽样技术,在三个卫生部门招募了 251 名急诊护士。使用二次创伤压力量表和护理绩效量表对他们进行评估。数据收集时间为 2022 年 6 月至 8 月:结果:护士经历了严重的二次创伤压力(M = 57.9,SD = 14.94)。护理绩效水平低于平均水平(男=27.48,女=9.36),心理绩效分量表得分最低(男=5.82,女=2.69)。继发性创伤压力总分与护理绩效总分之间存在很强的负相关(r = -.77)。此外,体质指数高、吸烟、患有慢性疾病、加班、二次创伤压力大等因素也是影响护理绩效的重要预测因素:结论:建议为急诊护士提供治疗方案和干预措施,以减轻其继发性创伤压力,从而提高其工作绩效,确保为患者提供高质量的护理服务。
