About this study

This trial will be conducted at the Grenoble Alpes University Hospital (CHUGA). Volunteer anesthesiologists, anesthesia interns, nurse anesthetists and nurse anesthetist students will answer questionnaires evaluating resilience, perceived stress in the last month, sleep quality, number of hours worked in the month, number of night hours and will evaluate each working day the perceived stress with the visual analogical scale of stress over 3 periods of the working day

The main objective is to determine if there is an association between the resilience (questionnaire: Connord davidson resielience scale: CDRISC10) of the anesthesia professionals in the block of the CHUGA and the perceived stress at work (Perceived stress sacle 10: PSS10).

The secondary objectives are to study the association between:

  • The mean of the two stress VAS (at the beginning and end of the shift) collected and the PSS10 over the same period.
  • The median of the peaks of stress VAS collected and the PSS10 over the same period.
  • The PSS10 and the PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index)
  • The PSS10 and the number of hours worked in the month.
  • The PSS10 and the number of night hours worked in the month.

Treatment and study plan

Assessment of stress, resilience and associated factors in anesthesia professionals

Behavioral

Assessment of stress, resilience and associated factors in anesthesia professionals

Primary outcomes

  1. Resilience

    Time frame: at day 0

    Measurement of resilience by Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale 10 (CD RISC 10 from 0 to 40) in participants. A high score indicates better resilience.

  2. Perceived Stress Scale

    Time frame: at day 30

    The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS10 from 10 To 50) measures the degree to which respondents feel their lives are unpredictable, uncontrollable, and overloaded. A high score indicates more stress.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Self-reported stress at the beginning of the workday.

    Time frame: Each work day at the start of the shift. From day 0 to day 30.

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

  2. Self-reported stress at the end of the workday.

    Time frame: Every working day at the end of the shift. From day 0 to day 30.

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

  3. Maximum self-reported stress of the workday.

    Time frame: Every working day at the end of the shift. From day 0 to day 30.

    Stress level self reported by participants on visual analogical scale (VAS from 0 to 100); One end of the scale represents the maximum conceivable symptom strength (i. e., 100%), the other end no symptoms whatsoever (i. e., 0%).

  4. The score of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)

    Time frame: at day 30

    The PSQI contains 19 self-assessed questions. These 19 questions combine to yield 7 components: (1) subjective sleep quality, (2) sleep latency, (3) sleep duration, (4) habitual sleep efficiency, (5) sleep disturbance, (6) use of sleeping medication, and (7) daytime dysfunction. Each component gives a score from 0 to 3 points (0 indicates no difficulty, while 3 indicates major difficulty). The scores of the seven components are then added together to give an overall score of 0 to 21 points (0 indicating no difficulty, and 21 indicating major difficulty).

  5. number of hours worked

    Time frame: Each work day at the end of the service. From day 0 to day 30.

    number of hours worked during the working day

  6. number of hours worked at night

    Time frame: Each night of work at the end of the service. From day 0 to day 30.

    the number of hours worked during the work night
