Abstract:

Background

In this study we assessed burnout and resilience levels among transplant nurses to analyze the relationship between these 2 variables, and to address whether demographic factors were associated with burnout.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted using a questionnaire. The sample included transplant nurses at 22 hospitals in China. The questionnaire consisted of 3 sections: demographic characteristics; the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI); and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). All questionnaires were delivered by e-mail. Data were analyzed using Pearson's linear correlation analysis, with regression analysis sone using SPSS (version 21.0).

Results

A total of 600 questionnaires were delivered and 536 valid ones were completed and returned. The results showed a high level of emotional exhaustion in 36.8% of the nurses responding, a high level of depersonalization in 31.0%, and low personal accomplishment in 7.6%. The data were found to support a relationship between burnout and resilience in the sample (resilience-emotional exhaustion, r = -0.10; resilience-depersonalization, r = -0.05; resilience-personal accomplishment, r = 0.42). In addition, demographic characteristics, including age, marriage, having children, monthly income, title, position, and exercise, affected the level of burnout.

Conclusion

Transplant nurses in China experience burnout. Resilience was negatively related to emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and was positively associated with personal accomplishment. Older age, being married, and having children may increase the risk of burnout. Nurses with a high monthly income, high title or position, and adequate exercise are not likely to experience burnout.
