  Abstract

  Background & Aim: Needle stick injuries as one of the most common occupational injuries in nursing are very important because of their potential risk of transmission of blood-borne infectious disease. The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of needle stick injuries and its related factors among nursing staff.

  Material & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 120 nursing staff of Saqqez Imam Khomeini's Hospital was recruited by census in 2014. Data was collected by needle stick injuries questionnaire and analyzed by descriptive statistics, independent T-test, Fisher's exact test and Chi -Square using PASW ( Predictive Analytics Software).

  Results: from a total of 120 nurses, 53 (44.2%) had a history of needle stick injuries in the last year. Comparing to other nurses, those with needle sticks injury were younger (p=0.01) and had less work experience (p=0.03). A total of 111 nurses (92.5%) had been vaccinated against hepatitis B and there was a significant relationship between hepatitis B vaccination and needle stick injuries (p=0.03). Only 14 nurses (11.7%) had reported their needle stick injuries.

Conclusion: Regarding the high frequency of needle stick injuries in nursing staff, nursing managers should consider preventive approaches such as maintaining safety measures in work environment, providing complete vaccination coverage and a reliable reporting system to confront with this problem.

Abstract
Background & Aims Job burnout can reduce the quality of life, performance, and organizational commitment of nurses and increase the intention to leave the job. Various studies have shown that empowerment of employees and involving them in decision-making can reduce their job burnout. Effective empowering behaviors of supervisors and nursing managers play an important role in empowering nurses. This study aims to determine the relationship between nursing manager’s empowering behaviors and nurses’ job burnout.
Materials & Methods This descriptive-correlational study was conducted in 2020. The study population includes all nurses working in the special care units (CCU and ICU) of Shahid Rajaee Heart Hospital. Participants were 165 nurses who were selected by a convenience sampling method. The empowering leadership questionnaire (ELQ) and the Maslach burnout inventory (MBI) were used to collect data. Data analysis was performed using Pearson’s correlation test and multiple linear regression analysis in SPSS software, version 24.
Results The mean age of participants was 36.73±7.20 years (ranged 24-53 years). One-hundred four nurses (63%) were female and 61(37%) were male. Most of the nurses (59.4%) were married. Pearson’s correlation coefficients showed a negative significant relationship between the scores of the ELQ dimensions and the scores of the MBI dimensions of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization (P<0.001). There was a positive significant relationship between the scores of the ELQ dimensions and the MBI dimension of personal accomplishment (P<0.001).
Conclusion The empowering behaviors of nursing managers in the study hospital were at a moderate level. The increase in the use of empowering behaviors by nursing managers can lead to a more decrease in the job burnout of nurses in different dimensions.
