As the prevalence of nurse burnout increases, reducing the burnout of operating room nurses helps to improve the physical and mental health of nurses. Thus, stabilising the nursing team can also guarantee the quality of medical care, which in turn improves patient satisfaction.

The time limit for the search was set from the creation of the databases to April 2024. Two researchers with evidence-based knowledge conducted the search, independently screened the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted the information and assessed the quality of the included literature using the quality assessment criteria for observational studies recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research, and performed a meta-analysis of the literature using the r value as an indicator of the outcome in RevMan 5.4 software.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 25 papers were included, with a sample size of 6,061 cases.

Employing adaptive strategies positively impacts the development of appropriate responses to emotional situations. Nursing students, particularly during initial patient and family interactions, may experience high stress and anxiety, often accompanied by reduced cognitive flexibility and emotion regulation. Therefore, incorporating strategies to enhance these skills, such as transactional analysis (TA) training, into nursing curricula is essential. TA is one of the theories that has provided practical solutions in the field of interpersonal relationships, increasing self-concept, and adapting to existing conditions in the field of interpersonal issues.
