目的:为了评估医生,护士和职业安全和健康技术人员(OSHT)之间的生活质量。研究设计:横断面研究进行了10个意大利regions.Methods的卫生保健工作者的人口:意大利版的SF-36(SF-36)是匿名和自愿自我管理的参与者,以评估感知的健康相关的生活质量(HRQOL)。比较样本和意大利人群的HRQOL评分。采用多元线性回归方法分析年龄、性别、角色、社会交往时间、工作时间、工作年限、科室工作年限等因素对SF-36评分的影响(标准差10.2)年]:52.6%为医生,36.8%为护士,10.5%为OSHT。职业生涯>15年的工人的总体健康得分低于职业生涯较短的工人,而那些花更多时间参加社交活动的人的心理健康得分较高。多变量分析显示,年龄增长与角色情绪水平呈正相关(β = 0.243; P = 0.002),而与一般健康状况(β = -0.218; P = 0.007)和身体功能(β = -0.246; P = 0.001)呈负相关。护士在躯体疼痛(β = -0.214; P < 0.001)、社会功能(β = -0.242; P = 0.001)和角色情感(β = -0.211; P = 0.006)方面的得分低于医生。与一般意大利人口相比,医护人员有较高的分数一般健康,身体功能,角色的身体,身体疼痛和心理健康,和较低的活力,社会功能和角色emotional.Conclusions分数:医护人员有不同水平的HRQOL与他们的专业角色。护士的生活质量更低。这些结果可能有助于确定可能导致医护人员沮丧,不满和情绪压力的主要角色和态度。(C)2012年,皇家公共卫生学会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Objective: To evaluate the quality of life among doctors, nurses, and occupational safety and health technologists (OSHT).Study design: Cross-sectional study was undertaken in a population of healthcare workers in 10 Italian regions.Methods: The Italian version of Short Form-36 (SF-36) was anonymously and voluntarily self-administered by participants to assess the perceived health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The HRQOL scores for the sample and the Italian population were compared. A multiple linear regression was performed to assess the influence of age, gender, role, socializing time, working time, years spent in healthcare and years spent in the specific department on the SF-36 score.Results: The sample included 324 healthcare workers [57.1% women, mean age 39.0 (standard deviation 10.2) years]: 52.6% were medical doctors, 36.8% were nurses and 10.5% were OSHTs. Workers with a career of >15 years achieved a general health score lower than that of workers with a shorter career, while those who spent more time in socializing activities achieved a higher mental health score. The multivariate analysis showed that increasing age is positively related to role emotional levels (beta = 0.243; P = 0.002), while it appears to be inversely related to general health (beta = -0.218; P = 0.007) and physical function (beta = -0.246; P = 0.001). Nurses had lower scores for bodily pain (beta = -0.214; P < 0.001), social function (beta = -0.242; P = 0.001) and role emotional (beta = -0.211; P = 0.006) compared with doctors. Compared with the general Italian population, healthcare workers had higher scores for general health, physical function, role physical, bodily pain and mental health, and lower scores for vitality, social function and role emotional.Conclusions: Healthcare workers have different levels of HRQOL related to their professional role. In particular, nurses have lower quality of life. These results may help to identify the main roles and attitudes that could cause frustration, dissatisfaction and emotional stress in healthcare workers. (C) 2012 The Royal Society for Public Health.
