Introduction: Nurses are professionals that work by involving cognitive and emotional aspects simultaneously when providing nursing care, which provides both positive and negative experiences. These experiences can affect nurses' professional quality of life (Pro-QOL). Professional quality of life has three dimensions, namely burnout (BO), compassion satisfaction (CS) and Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS). This paper presents a systematic review of the literature that examined factors that influence the professional quality of life on clinical nurses.Methods: Articles are obtained from the Scopus, Science Direct and Emerald databases using keywords Compassion Satisfaction, Burnout, Secondary Traumatic Stress, Nurse. The search identified 69 articles and 15 relevant research articles published between 2014-2019.Results: The results show that the inability of nurses to control the core of self-evaluation and the five-factor model (FFM) of personality traits, high workload, pressure in the work and imbalance between rewards and work, coping nurses and poor emotional support, rejection and giving up behavior can increase the number of those with compassion fatigue.Conclusion: The results show that the inability of nurses to control the core of self-evaluation and the five-factor model (FFM) of personality traits, high workload, pressure in the work and imbalance between rewards and work, coping nurses and poor emotional support, rejection and giving up behavior can increase the number of those with compassion fatigue.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of a 12-hour shift on mood states and sleepiness at the beginning and end of the shift. METHOD Quantitative, cross-sectional and descriptive study.It was conducted with 70 neonatal intensive care unit nurses. The Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS), Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS), and a socio-demographic profile questionnaire were administered. RESULTS When the KSS and BRUMS scores were compared at the beginning of the shift associations were found with previous sleep quality (p ≤ 0.01), and quality of life (p ≤ 0.05). Statistical significant effects on BRUMS scores were also associated with previous sleep quality, quality of life, liquid ingestion, healthy diet, marital status, and shift work stress. When the beginning and end of the shift were compared, different KSS scores were seen in the group of all nurses and in the night shift one. Significant vigor and fatigue scores were observed within shift groups. CONCLUSION A good night’s sleep has positive effects on the individual`s mood states both at the beginning and the end of the shift. The self-perception of a good quality of life also positively influenced KSS and BRUMS scores at the beginning and end of the shift. Proper liquid ingestion led to better KSS and BRUMS scores.

The results showed that 20.97% had a positive Professional Quality of Life according to the Stamm combination interpretation while outside of Stamm's interpretation, 32.26% tended to be positive. According to the results of the average score of each sub-variable, Compassion Satisfaction was in the medium category. The highest average score of compassion satisfaction was ICU nurses, the highest secondary traumatic stress was PICU/NICU nurses and the highest average score of burnout was emergency nurses.

Objective. To determine the relationship between the level of quality of professional life and the characteristics of the burnout syndrome of the nursing staff in the intensive care unit. Methods. An analytic cross-sectional study was conducted in the intensive care unit of a public hospital in Mérida (Venezuela), with the participation of 40 nurses from a total population of 43. The Professional Quality ofLife of 35 items (QoPL-35) and Maslach Burnout Inventory scales were used. Results. Of the participants, 67.5% were professionals and 32.5% were residents, < 41 years of age (75%) and of female sex (90%). The professional quality of life was regular (median = 213), the intrinsic motivation dimension was the best scored (median = 76), followed by that of workload (median = 68) and that of directive support (median = 65). The prevalence of high burnout syndrome was 22.5%; emotional exhaustion affected 75.5% of the participants and 37.5% had low personal achievement. The level of professional quality of life was related with the severity of the burnout syndrome (p=0.04). Conclusion. The professional quality of life of the nurses in the ICU studied was regular and is associated with a higher risk of suffering severe burnout syndrome.
