Abstract:

Objective To investigate the status quo of technical stress,psychological capital and job burnout of cardiology nurses and analyze the correlation among them,so as to provide objective evidence for clinical improvement of the job burnout level of cardiology nurses and improvement of clinical nursing work efficiency. Methods Nurses in the cardiology department of 9 grade-A tertiary hospitals in Beijing from January to February 2025 were selected as the survey subjects by random sampling. The technical stress scale,psychological capital scale and job burnout scale were used to investigate and analyze. Results A total of 178 cardiology nurses were included in the survey,the scores of technical stress,psychological capital and job burnout were(72.45±14.26),(92.48±15.32) and (62.32±12.85)points,respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the scores of technical stress among cardiology nurses with different age,total clinical nursing work hours,professional titles,average monthly total income and average monthly total number of shifts(all P<0.05). Job burnout was positively correlated with technical stress(r=0.582,P<0.01),and negatively correlated with psychological capital(r=-0.609,P<0.01). Psychological capital was positively correlated with technical stress(r=-0.576,P<0.01). Psychological capital of cardiology nurses had a partial mediating effect in the relationship between technical stress and job burnout,with a mediating effect of 0.249(accounting for 47.70% of the total effect). Conclusion The technical stress and job burnout of cardiology nurses are both at a high level,and technical stress can indirectly affect their job burnout level through psychological capital. Nursing managers should take active measures to reduce the technical stress of cardiology nurses and improve their psychological capital level in order to reduce their job burnout level.
