          Abstract

          Estresse tem presença marcante na atuação do enfermeiro. O presente artigo aborda um estudo exploratório realizado junto aos enfermeiros de unidade de emergência de instituição hospitalar, com o objetivo de determinar o nível de estresse desses profissionais. A amostra foi constituída por 73 enfermeiros de unidade de emergência, inseridos em instituições públicas e particulares do município de São Paulo. O questionário, com itens abordando a atuação específica do enfermeiro nessa unidade, foi utilizado na coleta de dados. Os resultados indicaram que os enfermeiros de unidade de emergência apresentam médio nível de estresse, e que as áreas E - Condições de trabalho para o desempenho das atividades de enfermeiro, e F - Atividades relacionadas à administração de pessoal, foram consideradas as mais estressantes para os indivíduos pesquisados. Constata-se que, para o enfermeiro de emergência, apesar de sua pronta e efetiva atuação frente à instabilidade da situação do paciente, as condições externas a essa situação são mais estressantes. Cabe às instituições analisarem esses requisitos para possibilitar a diminuição do estresse vivido pelos enfermeiros.

          Stress is clearly present in nursing work. This article presents an exploratory study carried out among emergency unit nurses from hospital institutions, and aimed at determining these professionals' stress level. The sample consisted of 73 emergency unit nurses who work for public and private institutions in the city of São Paulo. The data was collected through a structured questionnaire. The results indicated that emergency unit nurses present a medium stress level, and that participants considered E - Work Conditions to perform nursing activities, and F - Activities related to personnel administration, as the most stressful areas. For emergency unit nurses, in spite of the ready and effective action towards the instability of the patient's situation, conditions external to this situation are more stressful than the emergency. Hospitals need to analyze these requisites to allow for decreased stress among emergency nurses.

Las instituciones deben analizar esos requisitos para posibilitar la disminución del estrés vivido por los enfermeros.

          Nursing stress: the effects of coping strategies and job satisfaction in a sample of Australian nurses.

          Nursing stress: the effects of coping strategies and job satisfaction in a sample of Australian nurses The study reported in this paper examined relationships between nursing work-related stressors and coping strategies, and their impact upon nurses' levels of job satisfaction and mood disturbance. It was proposed that higher levels of perceived work stress and use of avoidance coping would increase mood disturbance, while problem-focused coping would be associated with less mood disturbance. The study also aimed to explore the possible 'buffering effects' of using humour in coping with stress, and the effect of job satisfaction on the stress-mood relationship. The sample consisted of 129 qualified Australian nurses who volunteered to complete standardized questionnaires, including the Nursing Stress Scale, Ways of Coping Questionnaire, the Coping Humour Scale, Job Satisfaction Scale of the Nurse Stress Index, and the shortened version of the Profile of Mood States. Results revealed a significant positive relationship between nursing stress and mood disturbance, and a significant negative relationship between nursing stress and job satisfaction. The use of avoidance coping and the perception of work overload were found to be significant predictors of mood disturbance. No evidence was found to indicate that the use of humour had a moderating effect on the stress-mood relationship but there was support for the influence of job satisfaction upon this relationship. These results provided some support for a transactional model of stress since situational factors were found to influence the nurses' coping and perceptions of stress.
