Abstract:

The compassion fatigue is a state of emotional exhaustion that occurs when helpers are exposed to empathetic pressure for a long time or frequently experience the pain of their clients. Nurses，as a typical helper group in the medical environment，are a high-risk group for compassion fatigue.

The article summarizes the concept of compassion fatigue in the nursing field，the current situation，symptom manifestations，and hazards of nurse's compassion fatigue，and provides a systematic review of intervention methods for nurse's compassion fatigue，in order to provide reference for preventing and improving nurse's compassion fatigue.
