Objective:To explore the resilience of nurses against COVID-19 in Xixi Hospital of Hangzhou and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From February 4th to 5th 2020, this study investigated 193 nurses against COVID-19 at Xixi Hospital of Hangzhou selected by convenience sampling with the general questionnaire, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) . Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of resilience.Results:Among 193 nurses, the total score of resilience was (62.60±13.70) ; the scores of three dimensions, optimism, self-reliance and tenacity were (9.59±2.37) , (21.62±4.68) and (31.40±7.74) respectively. The total score of GSES was (28.33±3.55) . Simple correlation showed that there were statistical differences in the total score of CD-RISC and dimension score of tenacity among nurses with different genders, experience of participating in emergent public health events, self-conscious readiness degree and confidence in fulfilling the task ( P<0.05) . Pearson correlation showed that resilience had a positive correlation with the general self-efficacy with a statistical difference ( r=0.474, P<0.01) . Multiple regression analysis demonstrated the influencing factors of nurses against COVID-19 were the self-conscious readiness degree, confidence in fulfilling the task and the general self-efficacy which totally explained 27.6% of the variance. Conclusions:Nurses against COVID-19 have the low level of the resilience which needs to be improved. We should pay more attention to the high-risk population, and provide a positively and effectively psychological intervention to improve the resilience of nurses against COVID-19.
