Patients in intensive care units (ICUs) reported having trauma that is commonly linked to the ICU environment. Using a psychosocial approach in the ICU helps to reduce ICU trauma. Aim: To determine the relationship between psychosocial care and ICU trauma among patients underwent open-heart surgery. Design: Descriptive cross-sectional research design was followed in the current study. Methods: The study subjects consisted of 130 patients who underwent open-heart surgery. The study was conducted at a Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit and a vascular surgery center. Tools of data collection included tool I: Health profile assessment tool which included two parts, patients' socio-demographic interview schedule, and patients' health-relevant data, tool II: ICU psychosocial care scale, and tool III: ICU trauma scale. Results: 76.2% of the studied patients had higher levels of ICU trauma and 23.8% had lower levels of ICU trauma. Also, the mean ± SD of the total psychosocial care was 49.03 ± 9.21. Conclusion: There is a negative statistically significant relationship between psychosocial care variables and ICU trauma.

Creating an ethical climate in organizations results in better psychological well-being, the performance of employees, job satisfaction, and organizational productivity. The study aimed to examine the nurse's perceived ethical climate, psychological well-being, and job satisfaction following the Covid-19 outbreak. Design: Crosssectional study design. Sample and Setting: A convenient sample was used in the current study, which included all staff nurses (199 nurses) who work in isolation hospitals (Minia psychiatric mental health hospital (59 nurses) and Minia health insurance hospital (140 nurses). Tools: three tools were utilization, tool (1) Hospital Ethical Climate questionnaire, tool (2): psychological well-being scale, and tool (3): job satisfaction questionnaire. Results: the majority of nurses have a satisfactory ethical climate. More than half of the study sample has moderate job satisfaction and positive correlation between hospital ethical climate and psychological well-being and job satisfaction. Conclusion: moderate positive correlation between hospital ethical climate with psychological wellbeing and job satisfaction. Recommendations: Further studies are needed to clear indicators such as personal and clinical data that influence hospital ethical climate, psychological well-being, and job satisfaction among nurses.
