Abstract (4650 Views)
Aims: Pediatric nurses face unique challenges in balancing professional and personal responsibilities, with burnout potentially influencing their attitudes toward childbearing. Understanding how occupational burnout impacts reproductive intentions is critical, especially in contexts like Iran, where declining fertility rates are a growing concern. This study aimed to explore the relationship between burnout and childbearing attitudes among female pediatric nurses working in selected children’s hospitals affiliated with Tehran University of Medical Sciences in 2024.
Instruments & Methods: In this correlational study, data were collected from 194 married female nurses through convenience sampling. The data were collected using a demographic information form, the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI), and the Attitudes Toward Fertility and Childbearing Scale through an online electronic questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 25, with descriptive and inferential statistics.
Findings: The findings revealed significant positive correlations between personal burnout (r=0.69, P<0.001) and nature work-related burnout (r=0.57, P<0.001) with perceiving childbearing as an obstacle. However, no significant relationships were found between burnout dimensions and other childbearing attitudes, such as the importance of fertility for the future or childbearing as a social identity. Client-related burnout also showed no significant association with childbearing attitudes.
Conclusion: Burnout, particularly personal and work-related burnout, was significantly associated with nurses’ attitudes toward childbearing and perceiving childbearing as an obstacle. Addressing burnout through interventions promoting mental health and work-life balance is essential to improve nurses’ well-being and foster positive attitudes towards childbearing.
