This method involves taking direct action to resolve the issue causing stress.
For example, consider a student who struggles to understand their...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Psychology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Surgical-trauma nurses face significant work-related stressors, increasing susceptibility to compassion fatigue.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated stress and burnout among nurses in a converted surgical-trauma unit.
  • Nurses lacked coping mechanisms for pandemic-related work stress.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of brief mindfulness-based interventions on compassion fatigue among surgical-trauma nurses.
  • To assess the effectiveness of mindfulness in mitigating burnout and secondary traumatic stress.
  • To determine if mindfulness practices improve compassion satisfaction in a high-stress nursing environment.

Main Methods:

  • Mindfulness champions delivered 5-minute interventions (meditation, deep breathing, self-compassion) during shift huddles.
  • The Professional Quality of Life, version 5 (ProQOL V) questionnaire assessed pre- and post-intervention outcomes.
  • Paired-sample t tests analyzed changes in burnout, secondary traumatic stress, and compassion satisfaction.

Main Results:

  • An 85% response rate (29/34 nurses) provided matched pre- and post-intervention data.
  • Significant improvements were observed across all subscale scores post-intervention.
  • Burnout decreased by 9.35% (P=.003), secondary traumatic stress by 11.89% (P=.005), and compassion satisfaction increased by 6.44% (P=.03).

Conclusions:

  • Brief mindfulness interventions integrated into shift huddles effectively reduced burnout and secondary traumatic stress in nurses.
  • Mindfulness practices provided a valuable coping mechanism for work-related stress.
  • These interventions demonstrably improved nurses' compassion satisfaction and reduced compassion fatigue.
