Younger, separated, divorced, and full-time intensive care unit (ICU) nurses experience higher emotional exhaustion. This study highlights the need for targeted burnout prevention strategies for ICU nursing staff.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Occupational Health
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Burnout is a significant concern in high-stress environments like intensive care units (ICUs).
  • Understanding the relationship between demographic factors and burnout is crucial for developing effective support systems for nurses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the correlation between burnout components and demographic variables in ICU nurses.
  • To raise awareness among nurses and administrators about the prevalence and impact of burnout.

Main Methods:

  • A descriptive correlational study was conducted.
  • Data collected from 68 ICU nurses using a demographic form and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI).
  • Non-parametric statistical tests were employed for analysis.

Main Results:

  • Overall burnout levels were low to moderate across all nurses and MBI subscales.
  • Younger nurses (20-29), those separated/divorced, and full-time staff reported higher emotional exhaustion.
  • Demographic factors were associated with specific burnout components.

Conclusions:

  • Support interventions should be tailored to mitigate burnout in ICU nurses.
  • Further research is needed to identify effective workplace strategies for reducing job-related stress and burnout in critical care settings.
