Öz

Objective: In this study, the paper is to investigate the relationship between sleep quality and the quality of work life of intensive care nurses. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 62 nurses working in the cardiovascular surgery and anesthesia intensive care unit of a university hospital. A questionnaire including the Introductory Characteristics Form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Quality of Nursing Work Life Scale were used to collect data. Descriptive statistics, independent sample t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and correlation analysis were used in the analysis of the data. Results: The average age of the intensive care nurses included in the study is 29.41±4.22 years (min:24, max:42) and 79.0% of them are women. 64.5% of the intensive care nurses work in the anesthesia intensive care unit. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index mean score of nursing is 5.59±2.62 and Quality of Nursing Work Life Scale mean score is 104.59±13.73. A positive, moderate correlation, statistically significant (r=0.236, p=0.039) relationship has been discovered between the mean scores of the two scales. Conclusion: In this study, the sleep quality of the intensive care nurses has been determined to be poor, and their quality of work life can be defined as moderate. At the same time, it was found that there was a positive relationship between sleep quality and quality of work life.

Yoğun Bakım Hemşirelerinin Uyku Kalitesi ve İş Yaşam Kalitesi Arasındaki İlişki: Kesitsel Bir Çalışma

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada yoğun bakım hemşirelerinin uyku kalitesi ile iş yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu kesitsel araştırma, bir üniversite hastanesinin kalp damar cerrahisi ve anestezi yoğun bakım ünitesinde çalışan 62 hemşire ile yürütülmüştür. Verilerin toplanmasında Tanıtıcı Özellikler Formu, Pittsburgh Uyku Kalite İndeksi ve Hemşirelik İş Yaşamı Kalitesi Ölçeğinin yer aldığı soru formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, bağımsız örneklem t testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi ve korelasyon analizleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmaya dahil edilen yoğun bakım hemşirelerinin yaş ortalaması 29.41±4.22 (min:24, maks:42) olup %79.0’ı kadındır. Yoğun bakım hemşirelerin %64.5’i anestezi yoğun bakım ünitesinde çalışmaktadır. Hemşirelerin Pittsburgh Uyku Kalite İndeksi puan ortalaması 5.59±2.62 ve Hemşirelik İş Yaşamı Kalitesi Ölçeği puan ortalaması 104.59±13.73’tür. İki ölçeğin puan ortalaması arasında pozitif yönlü, orta düzeyde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı (r=0.236, p=0.039) bir ilişki saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Bu çalışmada yoğun bakım hemşirelerinin uyku kalitesinin kötü düzeyde olduğu saptanmış olup iş yaşam kalitesinin de orta düzeyde olduğu söylenebilir. Aynı zamanda uyku kalitesi ile iş yaşam kalitesin arasında pozitif yönlü bir ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır
