Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between the psychological stress response of clinical nurses and hospital violence and ability empathy.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 300 clinical nurses in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were selected as the research objects from March to June 2021. Nurses were surveyed using the Hospital Violence Incidents Inventory, Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) and Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) . Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between psychological stress response of clinical nurses and hospital violence and empathy ability. Stepwise regression analysis was used to explore the effect of hospital violence and empathy ability on predicting nurses' psychological stress response. A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed, 291 were recovered and 279 were valid.Results:The overall incidence of hospital violence among clinical nurses within 1 year was 58.1% (162/279) . There were statistically significant differences in scores of each dimension of psychological stress response of clinical nurses with different gender and education levels ( P<0.05) . The total score of psychological stress response was correlated with the total number of violent incidents, the number of verbal injuries and the number of threats in the past year ( P<0.05) . The severity of physical conflict, imagination, number of threats were positively correlated with psychological stress response ( P<0.01) , and females had more stress response ( P<0.01) . Opinion-taking was negatively correlated with psychological stress response ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Clinical nurses may have a certain degree of psychological stress response after being subjected to hospital violence, which is more likely to occur in women, and empathy is a protective factor against this response.
