It also imposes financial burdens on healthcare organizations through absenteeism, reduced productivity, and higher turnover costs, highlighting the need for research to address these challenges. The umbrella review methodology was selected to integrate evidence from multiple systematic reviews and meta-analyses, offering a broad and in-depth summary of existing research to guide practice and policy. This approach equips stakeholders with a holistic understanding of the multifaceted impacts of nurse burnout, facilitating the design of effective interventions that support nurses, enhance healthcare delivery, and optimize patient outcomes. Consequently, this umbrella review aims to evaluate the global prevalence and contributing factors of nurse burnout.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This umbrella review included 14 systematic reviews and meta-analyses identified from various databases. The quality of each study was assessed using the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR II). Data were extracted using Microsoft Excel and analyzed with STATA 17.0. Heterogeneity was measured using Higgin's I² Statistics, and summary prevalence estimates were calculated with the Der Simonian-Laird random-effects model.

These attributes are essential for effective practice and long-term professional growth. If not developed, they may negatively impact patient outcomes and safety, contributing to medical errors, higher mortality rates, and job dissatisfaction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aim: &lt;/strong&gt;This study examines the impact of collaborative testing on students' retention of emergency nursing concepts and the development of soft skills.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Design: &lt;/strong&gt;A quasi-experimental research design was employed, adhering to the STROBE guidelines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods and tools: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 100 students enrolled in an emergency nursing course participated in the study. They were randomly assigned to either a control group (50 students) or an experimental group (50 students). Data was collected using the Emergency Nursing Academic Achievement Questionnaire and the Collaborative Testing Satisfaction Survey.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The findings revealed a significant improvement in the intervention group's post-lecture test scores for tests 2, 3, 4, and 5 (p &lt; 0.001), while no significant difference was observed in the first post-lecture test between the two groups (p = 0.415).

As a job resource, work-family support can mitigate the negative impact of high job demands. Work-family support also promotes positive outcomes, such as enhancing work engagement and career success.

In July 2024, a total of 397 nurses were recruited from 50 dialysis centers in Liaoning Province, using convenience sampling.
