“…A higher score indicates a higher degree of burnout. Although the CBI is in the public domain and researchers are free to use it, permission to use the CBI in Greek was obtained (Panagouli et al, 2019).…”

Background The work environment can contribute to the occurrence of nurses' burnout. Objectives This study assessed the work environment of haemodialysis nurses and the extent of burnout they have suffered, and it explored the connection between work environment and burnout. Design A multicentre cross‐sectional study was conducted in 53 public, hospital‐based haemodialysis units in Greece. Participants A total of 537 haemodialysis nurses participated. The majority consisted of females (90.8%) who possessed a university degree or a degree from a technological institute (72.6%). They had an average of 15 years of experience in dialysis. Measurements The Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index and the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) were used. The demographic characteristics of the participants were also collected. Results Although the nurses rated their work environment as healthy, they were experiencing a moderate degree of burnout. The multivariate linear regression analysis with the CBI scales as dependent variables was applied. The increased nurses' participation in hospital affairs was associated with decreased personal (coefficient β = −9.4, 95% confidence interval [CI] = −17.4 to −1.3, p = 0.023), work‐related (coefficient β = −12.9, 95% CI = −22.5 to −3.5, p = 0.008) and patient‐related burnout (coefficient β = −15.9, 95% CI = −24.5 to −7.4, p = < 0.001). The better collegial nurse–physician relationships were associated with decreased personal (coefficient β = −10.7, 95% CI = −18.3 to −3.0, p = .007) and work‐related burnout (coefficient β = −15.1, 95% CI = −23.3 to −7.0, p = < 0.001). Conclusions The work environment of haemodialysis nurses was associated with burnout. Its improvement is an important tool in administrations' effort to ensure the nursing staff's well‐being.

“…There are no cut-off prices that define the level of burnout and a higher score, at the subscale level or in the questionnaire as a whole, indicates a higher degree of burnout. Permission to use the questionnaire in Greek was requested and granted 23 . The data analysis was done with IBM SPSS 21.0 (Statistical Package for Social Sciences).…”

Background:The proportion of nurses who experience burnout is particularly high. The study aimed to evaluate the demographics and working environment and practice of the nursing staff and their level of burnout. Methods:A cross-sectional study was implemented in three hospitals on n=290 nurses from July-August 2020. The Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index was used to evaluate nurses' work environment and assessment of participants' degree of burnout was carried out using the tool Copenhagen Burnout Inventory. Multiple linear regression was used to find association and p <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The nurses' work environment was characterized as unhealthy, as the total score was 2.32, and four of the five subscales were also rated lower than 2.5. Nurses were found to experience moderate burnout. The subscale of personal burnout gathered the highest score. The nurses' practice in hospital affairs was associated with lower personal (b=−7.3,95%CI=-12.2 to -2.4, p=0.004), work-related (b=−9.5,95%CI=-14.4 to -4.8, p<0.001) and patient-related burnout (b=−10.6, 95%CI=-16.1 to -5.1, p<0.001). Also, nurse manager ability, leadership, and support of nurses were associated with lower personal (b=−6.5, 95% CI= -10.9 to -2, p=0.005) and work-related burnout (b = −5.8, 95%CI=-10.1 to -1.4, p=0.009). Conclusion:The nurses were found to experience significant burnout p < 0.001. But then again this was negatively influenced by their work environment.

IntroductionBurnout is a serious phenomenon that negatively affects teachers’ professional performance. The current study aims to determine the level of burnout among special education teachers in inclusive education schools in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.MethodsIt used a descriptive survey approach by employing an online questionnaire to collect data from 137 special education teachers in inclusive education schools.Results and discussionThe study found that the level of burnout among special education teachers was average, with an arithmetic mean of 2.907 and a relative weight of 48.40%. Male teachers had higher levels of burnout than female teachers. Moreover, teachers specialising in deafness and hearing loss had higher levels of burnout than teachers in other subspecialties. The other variables, such as educational level and experience, had no significant effect on the dimensions of burnout or overall level of burnout. This study recommends the provision of intervention programmes to help reduce teachers’ burnout levels. In addition, there is a need to reduce the workload and tasks assigned to special education teachers in inclusive education schools.
