Abstract:

Objective Based on the latent profile analysis,the category characteristics,inter-category differences and influencing factors of change fatigue of nurses in emergency department were discussed.Methods From January to February 2025,nurses in the emergency department of eight tertiary hospitals in Inner Mongolia were selected by convenience sampling. The general information questionnaire,the Change Fatigue Scale,the Organizational Commitment Scale,the General Self-efficacy Scale and the Psychological Resilience Scale were used to investigate. Through latent profile analysis and disordered multi-classification Logistic regression,the potential category characteristics and influencing factors of nurses ’ change fatigue were explored.Results A total of 456 emergency nurses were included,and the total score of change fatigue was (26.01±7.38). Through latent profile analysis,change fatigue was divided into three categories:low fatigue type(26.3%),medium fatigue type(55.9%) and high fatigue type(17.8%). The analysis found that gender,education level,years of emergency work,organizational commitment,self-efficacy and psychological resilience were the main factors affecting change fatigue(P<0.05).Conclusion The change fatigue of nurses in the emergency department is above the middle level and presents different types of characteristics. It is suggested that nursing managers should take targeted physical and mental intervention measures according to the characteristics of the categories to alleviate their fatigue level and improve nurses’ ability to cope with changes.
