Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study using bilingual validated questionnaire; the General Stressor Questionnaire (GSQ) and Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) conducted among nurses providing medical service for children in Hospital USM particularly in wards and clinic. All 159 eligible nurses were recruited and 157 completed questionnaires were analysed. Descriptive statistics were examined for all variables under study.

| description |
Objective: The aim of the study is to determine the prevalence of burnout and correlation
between burnout score and stressor domain score and to determine the association between
sociodemographic and occupational related factors with overall burnout among nurses
caring for children in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (Hospital USM).
Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study using bilingual validated
questionnaire; the General Stressor Questionnaire (GSQ) and Copenhagen Burnout
Inventory (CBI) conducted among nurses providing medical service for children in
Hospital USM particularly in wards and clinic. All 159 eligible nurses were recruited and
157 completed questionnaires were analysed. Descriptive statistics were examined for all
variables under study. Pearson’s correlation analysis was applied to study the correlation
while simple logistic regression and multiple logistic regressions were applied to study the
association.
Results: The prevalence of burnout among nurses caring for children in Hospital USM was
28.7% (95% CI = 21.6, 35.7) with the majority of them experienced personal burnout
(49.7%, 95% CI = 41.9, 57.5). There was a significant moderate positive correlation
between different stressor domain score with an overall burnout score with p-value < 0.05.
Work placement and bureaucratic constraints were identified as the main contributory
factor leading to overall burnout.
Conclusion: Burnout among nurses providing medical services for children in Hospital
USM is of concern especially involving personal burnout. The main stressor related factors
of burnout were work placement and bureaucratic constraints. Therefore, burnout among
nurses providing care for children must be addressed in order to enhance their
psychological wellbeing. |
