Objective:
 Ensuring patient safety in intensive care
units, which constitute the key area of nursing profession, depends on
protecting the safety of nurses. Intensive care units providing nonstop
treatment in challenging conditions change the sleep quality, psychological and
physiological rhythm of nurses. In this units nurses need to
work very carefully always.  Based on
this thought the purpose
of this study was to
examine the sleep quality and job satisfaction of intensive care nurses.  


 

Methods:   234 nurses from different intensive
care units in five different hospitals participated in this descriptive
cross-sectional study. Personal information form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality
Index (PSQI) and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) were used in data
analysis. 


Results:
  No
differences were found among PSQI scores of nurses with respect to intensive
care units whereas MSQ scores were found to be different p<0.005. The
average PSQI score was found to be 8.99±3.45. The highest Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire
scores were found at 3. Level general surgery, anesthesia ICUs and neonatal
ICUs (69.,16±13.76; 64.63±14.61).
A significant relationship was found between the job satisfaction of
nurses and the duration of work in intensive care units p<0.001.


Conclusions:   Although nurses were happy to work in
ICU, their sleep quality was found to be "poor" and their job
satisfaction was found to be at "medium level". İn
order to improve sleep quality of intensive care nurses, working hours should
be revised.  It is recommended that
managers make improvements that increase motivation and take into account the
feedback of employees.
