Objective To understand the current status and analyze the factors affecting the work engagement of wound therapists,and to provide references for promoting their work engagement.Methods From September 2022 to March 2023,wound therapists who were certificated by European Wound Management Association for more than 3 months were selected as subjects by convenient sampling method.The data was collected by the General Information Questionnaire,Hospitals and Wound Clinics Questionnaire,Areas of Worklife Scale and Specialty Nurse Work Engagement Scale,and the factors influencing the work engagement of wound therapists were analyzed by univariate and multiple liner regression.Results A total of 219 wound therapists were included.The total mean score of areas of worklife was(99.37±13.70);the average score of items was(3.55±0.49);the total mean score of the specialty nurse work engagement was(140.01±16.00);the average score of items was(4.38±0.50).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that reward,community,fairness,and values were factors influencing the work engagement of wound therapists(P＜0.05).Conclusion The higher average score of each dimension of areas of worklife could predict the higher level of work engagement for wound therapists.Nursing managers should pay more attention to the job-matching degree of specialty nurses and adopt scientific and effective management methods to improve the job-matching,which will help improve the specialty nurses'work engagement and satisfaction and reduce job burnout.

Objective:To investigate the status quo of burnout and influencing factors of burnout of wound therapists in China, so as to provide support for the growth and development of wound therapist.Methods:From September 2022 to March 2023, a total of 235 specialist nurses certified as wound therapists in China were selected as research objects by the convenient sampling method. General information questionnaire of wound therapists, Areas of Worklife Scale (AWS), Specialty Nurse Work Engagement Scale (SNWES) and Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Service Survey (MBI-HSS) were used to investigate the wound therapists. Binomial Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of wound therapist burnout.Results:A total of 235 questionnaires were sent out in this study, and 219 were effectively collected, with an effective recovery rate of 93.2%. Among 219 wound therapists, 125 (57.1%) were positive for burnout. The results of binomial Logistic regression analysis showed that job title, work load, team atmosphere and work value were the influencing factors of wound therapist burnout ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The detection rate of occupational burnout among wound therapists is relatively high, and professional titles, workload, team atmosphere and work value affect their job burnout, suggesting that nursing managers should adopt corresponding measures to improve the occupational environment of wound therapists and reduce their job burnout.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have reported inconsistent results with positive,negative,and J-shaped associations between alcohol consumption and the hazard of aortic aneurysm and dissection(AAD).This study aimed to examine the connections between weekly alcohol consumption and the subsequent risk of AAD. METHODS:The UK Biobank study is a population-based cohort study.Weekly alcohol consumption was assessed using self-reported questionnaires and the congenital risk of alcohol consumption was also evaluated using genetic risk score(GRS).Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios(HRs)with 95%confidence intervals(CIs)for the associations between alcohol consumption and AAD.Several sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the robustness of the results. RESULTS:Among the 388,955 participants(mean age:57.1 years,47.4%male),2,895 incident AAD cases were documented during a median follow-up of 12.5 years.Compared with never-drinkers,moderate drinkers(adjusted HR:0.797,95%CI:0.646-0.984,P<0.05)and moderate-heavy drinkers(adjusted HR:0.794,95%CI:0.635-0.992,P<0.05)were significantly associated with a decreased risk of incident AAD.Interaction-based subgroup analysis revealed that the protective effect of moderate drinking was reflected mainly in participants younger than 65 years and women. CONCLUSION:Our findings support a protective effect of moderate alcohol consumption on AAD,but are limited to participants younger than 65 years and women.
