Abstract

Amaç: Araştırmanın amacı, COVID-19 pandemisinde acil serviste görevli sağlık çalışanlarının yaşam kalitesinin algılanan stres üzerine etkisini incelemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırmanın evreni 265 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Örnekleme yapılmadan tüm evrene ulaşılması hedeflenmiş ve 201 kişiye ulaşılabilmiştir. Araştırma verileri anket formu kullanılarak yüz yüze görüşme yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Anket formu katılımcı bilgi formu, COV19-QoLTR ölçeği ve algılanan stres ölçeği olmak üzere 3 bölümden oluşmaktadır. Verilerin analizinde IBM SPSS 27 programı yardımıyla parametrik testlerden yararlanılmıştır.

Bulgular: Araştırma katılımcılarının %57,7’sini kadınlar, %47,8’ini lisans mezunu kişiler, %63,2’sini hemşireler, %70,6’sını 5 yıl ve daha az süredir çalışanlar ve %83,1’ini vardiyalı çalışanlar oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada evli olanların, ortalama üstünde yaşa sahip olanların ve pandemi sebebiyle bir yakınını kaybetmiş olanların COV19-QoLTR puan ortalamalarının anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca vardiyalı çalışan personelin sabit mesaide çalışanlara göre ve doktorların da hemşire ve diğer sağlık personeline göre algılanan stres ölçeğinden daha yüksek puanlara sahip olduğu ortaya konmuştur.

Sonuç: Araştırma sonucunda acil sağlık çalışanlarında COVID-19 pandemisinin yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki olumsuz etkisinin algılanan stresi anlamlı şekilde etkilediği ve artırdığı tespit edilmiştir.

Abstract

Aim: The aim of the study is to examine the effect of the quality of life of healthcare workers in the emergency service on perceived stress during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Material and Methods: The population of the study consists of 265 people. It was aimed to reach the whole population without sampling and 201 people could be reached. Research data were collected by face-to-face interview method using a questionnaire. The questionnaire form consists of 3 parts: participant information form, COV19-QoLTR scale and perceived stress scale. In the analysis of the data, parametric tests were used with the help of IBM SPSS 27 program.

Results: 57.7% of the research participants are women, 47.8% are undergraduates, 63.2% are nurses, 70.6% are working for 5 years or less, and 83.1% are shift workers. In the study, it was observed that the COV19-QoLTR score averages of those who were married, those who were above the average age, and those who had lost a relative due to the pandemic were significantly higher. In addition, it has been revealed that the personnel working in shifts have higher scores on the perceived stress scale than those working in fixed shifts, and the doctors according to the nurses and other health workers.

Conclusion: As a result of the study, it was determined that the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the quality of life of emergency health workers significantly affected and increased the perceived stress.
