Research progress on the current situation of anesthesia nurse role pressure and intervention strategies

As a special group of specialized nurses, the development of anesthesia nurses has attracted wide attention at home and abroad. The research shows that the anesthesia nurses are under obvious role pressure due to the lack of staff ratio, work characteristics and obvious differentiation of responsibilities. In addition, the literature research finds that most of the factors related to the role pressure of anesthesia nurses are explained by single dependent variable or single model, the lack of test research on multivariate causality, and the empirical coping strategies are rare. So that the impact of the role pressure on the work of anesthesia nurses has not been effectively alleviated. In developed countries such as Europe and America, anesthesia nurses have the right to practice independently and high authority, meanwhile the education system and practice standards have been standardized. Research shows that the low professional skills and authority of anesthesia nurses lead to the high level of role pressure. In our country, although the scope of practice of nurse anesthesia across a wide range, but most do not have the management and technical authority, the work is mostly preoperative preaching, anesthesia drugs and equipment preparation, tracking follow-up and other assistant nature of the work, technology and authority is low. Although some hospitals have done exploratory implementation of the use of general anesthesia techniques by nurse anesthetists, they have also clearly expressed restrictions on the practice of nurse anesthesia. This paper summarizes the relevant factors leading to the role stress of nurse anesthetists contain nurse anesthetists' emotional intelligence, burnout, tendency to leave the job, and job satisfaction, etc. It also reviews the current research progress of nurse anesthetists' role stress at home and abroad in terms of the current status of nurse anesthetists' role stress, assessment tools, relevant factors, and intervention strategies, and provides a reasonable outlook of the existing intervention methods of role stress, so as to provide references for the exploration of suitable stress intervention programs for nurse anesthetists in China.
