Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Introduction: In nursing education, where students face intensive academic and clinical demands, it is essential to understand the factors contributing to burnout, particularly patient-related burnout, as it is a key dimension affecting both student well-being and the quality of patient care. Objective: This study aimed to describe the effects of perceived stress and sociodemographic characteristics on patient-related burnout among nursing students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 91 final-year nursing students at the Higher Institute of Nursing Professions and Health Techniques (HINPHT) of Taza city, Morocco. Data were collected using a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI). Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to examine the associations between perceived stress, sociodemographic variables, and patient-related burnout. Results: Findings indicate that patient-related burnout was reported at low (52.7%), moderate (41.8%), and high levels (5.5%). Among sociodemographic factors, tobacco use was the only variable significantly associated with patient-related burnout, showing a negative correlation (B = -0.922, 95% CI: -1.610 to -0.234, p < 0.01). Perceived stress did not exhibit a significant association (p = 0.775). Conclusion: Smoking may protect against patient-related burnout among nursing students, unlike perceived stress or sociodemographic factors. However, further longitudinal research is needed to confirm causality and guide interventions to reduce burnout and enhance well-being among nursing students.
