Abstract: Objective To explore job burnout level of nurses with different nursing age in breast surgery of grade-A tertiary hospitals in Quanzhou City,analyze influencing factors of job burnout and formulate targeted intervention strategies accordingly. Method From January 2021 to October 2024,a cluster sampling method was used to select 100 nurses from the breast surgery department of grade-A tertiary hospitals in Quanzhou City as the research subjects. They were divided into low nursing age group (<5 years,n=30),middle nursing age group(5-10 years,n=40) and high nursing age group(>10 years,n=30) according to their nursing age.The general data of nurses were collected.The job burnout level(emotional exhaustion,depersonalization,low personal accomplishment) was analyzed by Maslach burnout inventory. The job burnout in nurses with different demographic characteristics was analyzed by univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results The scores of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization in high nursing age group were (4.01±0.81) and (4.34±0.37)points,lower than those in middle nursing age group[(4.43±0.66) and (4.62±0.52)points] and low nursing age group[(4.97±0.72) and (5.01±0.41)points]. The low personal achievement score of the high nursing age group was (4.89±0.64)points,which was higher than that of the medium nursing age group[(4.54±0.53)points] and the low nursing age group[(4.18±0.67)points](both P<0.05).Univariate analysis showed that there were no statistically significant differences in gender,education level,job nature,affiliation,and marital status among nurses of different nursing ages(all P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the age and professional title of nurses with different nursing ages,and with the increase of nursing age,the age and professional title of nurses gradually increased(both P<0.05).With the increase of nursing age,the lower the age and professional title,the more frequent the white/night shift,the higher the job burnout level(P<0.05).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age,professional title and job nature were risk factors of job burnout(all P<0.05). Conclusion There are differences in job burnout level among nurses with different nursing age in breast surgery of grade-A tertiary hospitals in Quanzhou City,and it is influenced by multiple factors. The demographic characteristics such as nursing age,age,professional title and white/night shift are closely related to job burnout. In the nursing management of breast surgery,these factors should be fully considered,personalized intervention measures should be formulated for nurses with different nursing age,professional titles,work scheduling characteristics to improve psychological state of nursing staffs.
