为了对工作疲劳进行客观评估，我们调查了延长工作时间的急诊护理人员唾液皮质醇水平的变化模式。14名受试者，包括7名医生和7名医生助理，在24小时轮班的过程中，并在随后的空闲时间定期提供未刺激的唾液样本。有一个显着的时间效应，清晨皮质醇水平显着衰减后的工作班次。自然昼夜变化因性别而异，女性受试者表现出更高的皮质醇水平。医生也有更高的皮质醇含量，尽管他们的清醒-休息周期与医生助理相似。我们的研究结果表明，唾液皮质醇模式的时间变化以及昼夜相似性可以反映与工作有关的压力和恢复。特别是，清晨的皮质醇水平可能表明个人对工作压力和睡眠剥夺的反应。
To develop objective assessments of work fatigue, we investigated the patterns of changes in salivary cortisol levels in emergency care providers working extended work shifts. Fourteen subjects, comprising seven physicians and seven physician assistants, provided unstimulated saliva samples at regular intervals over the course of a 24-h work shift and over their subsequent free day. There was a significant time effect, with early morning cortisol levels being significantly attenuated following the work shift. Native diurnal variations varied by gender, with the female subjects manifesting greater cortisol levels. Physicians also had higher cortisol profiles even though their wake–rest cycles were similar to those of the physician assistants. Our results suggest that temporal changes, as well as diurnal similarities, in the salivary cortisol patterns can reflect work-related stress and recovery. In particular, early morning cortisol levels may manifest individual reactivity to work stressors as well as sleep deprivation.
