护理实践已被确定为医疗系统中压力最大的职业之一。本研究旨在确定初级保健护士的压力及其相关因素的患病率。这项分析性横断面研究是在沙特阿拉伯麦地那市政府初级保健中心的200名沙特护士中进行的。采用由21个条目组成的抑郁、焦虑和压力量表中的压力子量表测量压力。压力源由15个条目组成。女性占68.0%，年龄在40岁以下者占72.5%。30%的人有严重或非常严重的压力。压力与慢性病(P=0.037)和夜班工作(P=0.042)显著相关。工作场所的所有压力源都与压力显著正相关(P<；0.01)。大约三分之一的参与者有压力。改善工作条件和尽量减少工作场所的压力应该是初级卫生保健环境中的优先事项。
Nursing practice has been identified as one of the most stressful professions within the healthcare systems. The current study aimed to determine the prevalence of stress and its associated factors among primary healthcare nurses. This analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 200 Saudi nurses in the government primary health care centers in Medina city, Saudi Arabia. Stress was measured by the stress subscale of the 21-Item Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale. Sources of stress were assessed by 15 items. The majority were females (68.0%) and aged less than 40 years (72.5%). Thirty percent had severe or very severe stress. Stress was associated significantly with the presence of chronic diseases (P = 0.037) and with working in night shifts (P = 0.042). All sources of stress in the workplace were associated significantly and positively with stress (P < 0.01). About one-third of the participants had stress. Improving work conditions and minimizing stress in the workplace should be a priority in the primary health care setting.
