Clinical issue of interest- nurse burnout
Characteristics: fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, depression, and impaired sleep (Rudman et al., 2021).
Causes: Job dissatisfaction, poor quality of the work environment, and unhealthy work relationships
Implications: reduced output and high turnover (Rudman et al., 2021).
Nurses should work as comfortably as possible in order to maintain a healthy work environment and maximize patient outcomes. Nurse burnout, on the other hand, has a negative impact on nurses’ output and work relationships. It is also a major source of nurse turnover. According to Rudman et al. (2021), nurse burnout is characterized by fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, depression, and poor sleep. In this case, it affects multiple aspects of nurses’ health, implying that they are unable to provide efficient and effective care. Job dissatisfaction and increased workload are common causes. Evidence-based interventions are required due to the negative consequences of unhealthy workplaces and turnover. One of the most effective interventions is resilience training.
Burnout in nurses is a problem.
Resilience training is an intervention.
Contrast: no intervention
Reduced burnout as a result
Timeline: six months
The PICOT process aids in the development of a thoughtful question that will guide the search for evidence. I used the same method to
Assignment Evidence-Based Project, Part 2 Advanced Levels of Clinical Inquiry and Systematic Reviews
create the PICOT question. The entire process begins with identifying the patient or problem that requires intervention. Nurses experiencing burnout are the target population in this scenario. Resilience training is the proposed intervention to improve nurses’ resilience to burnout. Other alternatives are considered in the comparison, but none have been considered. The result indicates the desired goal, which is to reduce nurse burnout. Because evidence-based practice projects must be completed within a specific time frame, the time required to achieve the desired outcome must be specified.
PICOT Question: Can resilience training (I) reduce nurse burnout (O) in six months (T) in nurses with burnout (P) compared to no intervention (C)?
Scholarly and peer-reviewed sources should be used to obtain evidence-based practice research. The university library has access to numerous nursing databases that contain numerous articles on a variety of topics. CINAHL Plus with Full Text, an extensive collection of journals and e-books on nursing topics, was one of the research databases I used. The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews contains full-text versions of evidence-based sources to help inform nursing and health-care decision-making. PubMed provides access to full-text journal articles. The CINAHL/MEDLINE Combined Search includes peer-reviewed articles from the nursing and allied health literature, as well as case studies, systematic reviews, and EBP reports.

The above four studies met the inclusion criteria for scholarly and peer-reviewed articles. Besides being scholarly and peer-reviewed, the studies recommend resilience training as an evidence-based strategy for addressing nurse burnout. Deldar et al. (2018) conducted a meta-analysis examining the effects of resiliency on nurse b
