Aims To investigate the career success and work environment among nurses with a master's or doctoral degree and analyse the effect of work environment on their career success. Methods This was a national descriptive, cross‐sectional study. A total of 1223 nurses with a master's or doctoral degree from 115 tertiary hospitals across mainland China participated in the study. Subscales of the practice environment scale of the nursing work index and career success scale were utilized for data collection via email in the summer of 2017. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the collected data. Results The research showed that the career success and work environment ratings of nurses with a master's or doctoral degree were at a moderate level. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that work environment was positively correlated with career success for three of the four subscales. Conclusion The career success and work environment is moderate among nurses with a master's or doctoral degree, and improving the work environment for nurses may lead to higher career success.

En Colombia se han desarrollado investigaciones (en ciudades especificas), que se han orientado a describir la prevalencia del síndrome o sus factores asociados, se han realizado principalmente en docentes (20,21) y en profesionales de la salud (14,15,(22)(23)(24)(25) .…”

“…El comportamiento de las variables sociodemográficas y laborales es similar a lo descrito por otros autores; en el presente estudio, el 90% de los encuestados pertenece al sexo femenino, como se ha encontrado en diferentes estudios (5,17,23,24,26,27,30,31,34,35) , desde 1860, cuando Florence Nigthingale direcciona a la enfermería a un nivel de profesión, hasta la actualidad, la función de las enfermeras en las instituciones de salud obedece al estereotipo del género femenino (36) . El estado civil predominante es ser solteros, seguido por estar casado, igual que lo encontrado en Ibagué (30) , pero en Bogotá (31) , Barranquilla (23) y Cartagena (24) esta condición es minoritaria, aunque el estudio realizado en la Orinoquia no encontró relación de la variable estado civil con la ocurrencia del síndrome, sin embargo, este ha sido asociado en un estudio realizado en Grecia (18) .…”

Method: The workshop was developed through a literature review performed between November 2014 and June 2015. The temporal cut considered studies of the ten previous years. The selection included studies describing collective interventions for situations generating psychic and moral exhaustion, preferably in primary care services. Results: Thirty-five articles were analyzed. The workshop provides five meetings with an average duration of one hour. The themes are: awareness; recognizing personal stress; dealing with personal stress; recognizing team stress; and dealing with team stress. The workshop is based on five key principles: detection and coping; attention to interpersonal relationships; communication; self-knowledge and mindfulness. Conclusion: Psychic and moral exhaustion may reflect negatively on workers' health, the care, and the organization. The proposal of measures to recognize, deal with and prevent psychic and moral exhaustion is relevant and strategic in the constant search for improvement of satisfaction and quality.
