Hospital nurses are at high risk of fatigue due to stressful work environments with heavy workloads and non-standard work schedules. This systematic review examined the relationship between hospital nurse fatigue and outcomes. Full-text English language quantitative studies published between January 2000 and July 2020 were included. A total of 22 articles were reviewed and synthesized. The findings were synthesized into three major categories: nurse outcomes, nurse-reported patient outcomes, and organizational outcomes. Some of the most commonly studied outcomes include nursing performance (n=3), sickness absence (n=3), and intention to leave (n=4). Fatigue was consistently associated with mental health problems, decreased nursing performance, and sickness absence. Many studies confirmed that nurse fatigue is negatively associated with nurse, patient-safety, and organizational outcomes. However, our findings highlight gaps in current knowledge and the need for future research using a longitudinal design and measuring additional outcomes to better understand the consequences of nurse fatigue.

Arriving at an accurate diagnosis is one of the competencies prime of the medical practitioner. Errors may occur in the diagnostic process anywhere from the point of patient’s initial assessment and interpretation of diagnostic tests, and even during follow-up and patient referral. Patient safety is gaining global precedence and in this context diagnostic errors are speculate as an important cause of harm to the patients.1 An awareness of the possible underlying factors leading to diagnostic errors, along with a repertoire of strategies to improve can be of great help to both junior and senior medical residents

AbstractIt is critical to understand, analyze and improve the work system of medical residents in order to support the care processes in which they are involved, as well as their educational processes. The discipline of human factors (or ergonomics) (HFE) provides systems concepts and methods to improve the multi-faceted work system of medical residents and, therefore, care processes and educational processes, and outcomes for both patients and residents. In this chapter, we apply the SEIPS (Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety) model to the work system of residents, and use it to explain how the outcomes of patient safety and medical resident well-being are related. Various challenges need to be addressed in order to improve residents’ work system. In particular, it is critical to adopt a systems approach that can optimize multiple outcomes for a range of stakeholders. In line with the participatory ergonomics approach, we contend that residents have a critical role to play in improving their work system; we describe various ways that this can be accomplished.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate nursing professionals’ perception on safety climate, to check if this perception differs between categories and if there is correlation between the Safety Attitude Questionaire (SAQ) domains and personal and professional variables. Method: Quantitative and transversal study held in a teaching hospital in the countryside of São Paulo, in Brazil. Data collection occurred in the period from April to July 2014, with the application of the SAQ. Results: 259 professionals participated in the study. The domain job satisfaction obtained scores above 75 for both categories. The perception of safety climate differed between the categories for most areas, except for the recognition of stress, and there is correlation between five SAQ domains and the variables time of experience and intention to leave the profession. Conclusion: Knowing the professionals’ perception on safety climate will contribute to a secure assistance.

Objective: to investigate, in the literature, evidence on the influence of different styles of leadership on results with patients, professionals and institutions. Method: integrative review of the literature on the portals Virtual Health Library (VHL) and Pubmed and databases Scopus, CINAHL and Embase, using the following descriptors: "leadership", "nursing", "patient safety", “burnout, professional”, "absenteeism" and "personnel turnover" in original articles. Results: 26 publications were included, of which 14 were related to patient outcomes (patient safety), ten related to professionals (burnout) and four to the institution (rotation). Regarding the patients, the leadership style that contributed the most to the favorable results was the transformational, followed by situational, ethical, clinical and coaching. Regarding the development of burnout, the leadership that contributed the most to the reduction of the level of the syndrome was the authentic one, followed by the transformational one and, as far as the intention to leave the job, the authentic one, followed by the transformational leadership were the ones that contributed the most to diminish this intention. In this item, abusive leadership contributed to the desire of professionals to quit their jobs. Conclusion: transformational and authentic leaderships were the ones that most influenced the positive results with patients, professionals and institutions.
