Potential profile analysis and influencing factors of alarm fatigue among nurses in the intensive care unit

Abstract

Abstract: Objective To understand the current status of alarm fatigue among nurses in intensive care units（ICU）,and to construct a potential category for identifying the distribution characteristics of demographic variables in each subgroup. Methods From September 2022 to February 2023,447 nurses from the ICU of 5 grade-A tertiary hospitals in Henan Province were cluster selected as the research objects,and the self-made general information questionnaire,ICU nurse alarm fatigue scale,Chinese nurse work stressor scale and cognitive load scale（MDT-CL） were used to investigate,and the data were analyzed. Results The alarm fatigue score of ICU nurses was （35.74±5.52）points,which was above average. Three potential categories were identified based on ICU nurse alarm fatigue scores,namely moderate to severe fatigue-low level group（15.44%）,moderate to severe fatigue-high level group（38.7%） and moderate to severe fatigue-medium level group（45.86%）. The years of work experience in ICU,training on alarm related knowledge,experience of alarm related adverse events,and nurse work pressure were all influencing factors for the potential profile classification of ICU nurse alarm fatigue（all P<0.05）. Conclusion The alarm fatigue of nurses in the ICU is moderate to severe and has obvious classification characteristics. Nursing managers can construct targeted intervention programs according to the influencing factors of alarm fatigue in the ICU,so as to reduce the alarm fatigue of nurses in the ICU and improve the quality of care for patients in the ICU.
