“…In the study by Karkar et al (2015), 32% of dialysis nurses were found to experience high levels of BO, while 59.8% experienced low levels of emotional BO in a study by Ayraler et al (2011). Similarly, Wang et al (2022) found that hemodialysis nurses had high levels of CF. On the other hand, it may be considered a remarkable finding that contributes to the literature since there is limited study examining the CF levels of dialysis nurses, which in the present study were significantly high compared to those of the oncology nurses.…”

“…A study that addressed the CF levels of nurses working as liver and kidney transplant coordinators reported moderate levels of CF (Kim, 2003). Wang et al (2022) found that hemodialysis nurses had high levels of CF. Similarly, the literature shows that nurses working in the dialysis unit may experience BO because they are highly exposed to intensive and long-term interaction with patients requiring complex technological care (Hayes & Bonner, 2010).…”

Background: It is known that health professionals who work with chronic patients for a long time are at risk in terms of compassion fatigue and burnout. Purpose: The study aims to compare the levels of compassion fatigue, burnout, and compassion satisfaction of nurses working on oncology-hematology and dialysis and determine the predictors. Methods: This study was carried out using descriptive and correlational research design. The research was conducted with 278 nurses. Participants were enrolled using a convenience sampling technique from the oncology–hematology inpatient services, outpatient chemotherapy units, and bone marrow transplant units and dialysis nurses of purposively selected hospitals in Istanbul, Turkey. Personal information form and Professional Quality of Life-IV. Potential predictors were analyzed using univariate analysis. We conducted multiple stepwise linear regression analyses to reveal the outcome variables. Results: A sub-analysis comparing the dialysis specialty with the oncology-hematology revealed that dialysis nurses report significantly higher compassion fatigue scores than oncology nurses. Working willingly in the current unit and the level of received social support were determined as predictors for all outcome variables. Conclusions: This is the first study comparing compassion fatigue, burnout, and compassion satisfaction levels of oncology-hematology and dialysis nurses. This study indicates the need for nurse managers to be aware of compassion fatigue and plan compassion fatigue prevention programs. In addition, this study guides the interventional studies to be conducted in the future.

“…A study conducted in Spain revealed that healthcare workers suffered from moderate to high levels of compassion fatigue and burnout during the COVID-19 crisis (Ruiz-Fernández et al, 2020). Wang et al (2022) also reported high levels of burnout and compassion fatigue. In addition, compassion fatigue scores in this study were higher than the results of some studies conducted with nurses before the pandemic in Turkey (Erkorkmaz et al, 2018;Polat et al, 2020).…”

“…In addition, studies have reported a high prevalence of compassion fatigue in nurses during the pandemic (Storm & Chen, 2021;Wang et al, 2022). Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic caused deleterious effects on frontline nurses' mental health (Aloweni et al, 2022;Murat et al, 2021).…”

Among the occupational groups most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, nurses have encountered many difficulties in patient care and have been exposed to many sources of stress (Aloweni et al., 2022;Murat et al., 2021). With a higher risk of infection compared to the rest of the population, nurses have experienced anxiety due to many factors, including limited rest, an insufficient number of personal protective equipment, increasing in workload and working hours, changes in the units or institutions where they work, experiencing unprecedented working conditions and the risk of transmitting or spreading the virus to their families (Labrague & De los Santos, 2021;Rossettini et al., 2022). This situation caused them to work under intense stress (Alan et al., 2021;Murat et al., 2021). As a result, nurses working in pandemic wards and intensive care units experienced negative outcomes such as decreased job satisfaction and increased burnout and compassion fatigue (Aloweni et al., 2022;Xia et al., 2022). For better performance and patients' quality of

“…In addition, public hospitals (especially high-level public hospitals) have stricter management policies for nurses. Thus, HD unit nurses in public hospitals will be more proactive in improving their professionalism in all aspects, so as to achieve professional title promotion or avoid dismissal (18). Moreover, medical staff in public hospitals have more training opportunities and wider channels to acquire knowledge related to vascular access than those in private hospitals, and thus, they have greater knowledge related to vascular access.…”

Background: Nurses in hemodialysis (HD) units are the main performers in the maintenance and management of HD patients' vascular access, and the cognition degree of their specialized knowledge of vascular access directly affects the quality of vascular access management. However, most of the investigations on the cognition of vascular access knowledge take HD patients as the research subjects, while there are few studies on nurses in HD units as the research subjects. Herein, we explored the knowledge of vascular access among HD unit nurses and its influencing factors, aiming to inform the training of HD unit nurses on vascular access management.Methods: By using a convenience sampling method, we investigated the knowledge of vascular access in terms of basic knowledge, vascular access assessment and arteriovenous fistula (AVF) puncture technique knowledge of dialysis unit nurses who volunteered to engage in hemodialysis clinical nursing for more than 6 months in HD units in Sichuan Province from March 2022 to May 2022. Data were collected on demographic characteristics, hospital nature, the city and region where the hospital is located, the working time of hemodialysis. Analysis of variance was used to analyze the score of vascular access specialist knowledge of HD unit nurses, and multiple linear regression was used to explore the influencing factors of vascular access specialist knowledge of HD unit nurses. Results: A total of 222 nurses in HD units were included. The total score of the knowledge of vascular access was 87.52±13.71 points, of which the basic knowledge scored 3.88±0.60 points, the vascular access assessment scored 3.62±0.65 points, and the AVF puncture techniques scored 3.22±0.71 points. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that longer working years [beta: 0.381, 95% confidence interval (CI): 3.064-7.188, P=0.000], more advanced training [beta: 0.206, 95% CI: 2.817-10.672, P=0.001], and public hospital [beta: 0.138, 95% CI: 0.839-12.342, P=0.025] positively predicted higher knowledge of vascular access scores among HD unit nurses (all P<0.05). Conclusions: The cognitive degree of vascular access specialized knowledge of hemodialysis nurses is affected by different working years, training experience and the nature of the hospital. Nursing managers can develop different training and assessment programs for vascular access specialized knowledge according to different influencing factors.
