Investigation of Burnout, Musculoskeletal System and Aerobic Capacity in Nurses

The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship of aerobic capacity with burnout status, musculoskeletal system, physical performance and exercise benefit/obstacle perception in nurses, who have an important place in the health profession group, and to bring the results to the literature. Demographic information will be obtained from the participants who volunteered to participate in the study. Burnout, musculoskeletal pain and physical performance will be evaluated with relevant scales and aerobic capacity will be measured with a bicycle ergometer.

About this study

In the literature, there are studies on the general effects of aerobic exercises on the cardiovascular system, musculoskeletal system, endocrine system, nervous system and psychosocial status. However, despite the benefits of aerobic exercises and the physiological and psychological importance of high aerobic capacity, there are no studies in the literature that examine the factors associated with the aerobic capacity of nurses. These factors affect the professional life of nursesThe aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship of aerobic capacity with burnout status, musculoskeletal system, physical performance and exercise benefit/obstacle perception in nurses, who have an important place in the health profession group, and to bring the results to the literature. Demographic information will be obtained from the participants who volunteered to participate in the study. Burnout, musculoskeletal pain and physical performance will be evaluated with relevant scales and aerobic capacity will be measured with a bicycle ergometer.

Treatment and study plan

Evaluation of aerobic capacity

Other

A stepwise protocol will be used in which the load increases gradually with the bicycle ergometer. In these protocols, the load increases continuously in small amounts throughout the exercise.

Primary outcomes

  1. Aerobic capacity assessment

    Time frame: up to 30 minutes

    A stepwise protocol will be used in which the load increases gradually with the bicycle ergometer. In these protocols, the load increases continuously in small amounts throughout the exercise.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Burnout assessment

    Time frame: up to 30 minutes

    Maslach Burnout Inventory, which was developed by Christina Maslach and Susan Jackson (1986) and Turkish adaptation and validity-reliability study was conducted by Ergin (1992), will be completed. The 7-point Likert-type scale, which consists of 22 items in total and consists of 'Never- Few Times a Year- Few Times a Month- Once a Month- Few Times a Week- Once a Week- Every Day' options in its original form, was reduced to five options in the adaptation study conducted by Ergin (1992) on the grounds that it was not suitable for Turkish culture.

  2. Musculoskeletal evaluation

    Time frame: up to 30 minutes

    n 1987, the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire developed by Kuorinka to measure musculoskeletal pain will be completed. The body is divided into 9 regions: neck, shoulder, back, elbow, hand/wrist, waist, hip/thigh, knee, foot/ankle. It is assessed whether there is a problem in these areas and if so, how long it has been going on
