Person-directed burnout intervention for nurses: A systematic review of psychoeducational approaches.
Synthesis in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundNurse burnout is a pervasive issue impacting their well-being and patient care quality. Recognized by the World Health Organization as an "occupational phenomenon," burnout results from inadequately managed chronic workplace stress and manifests as emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. This can lower the quality of life and increase turnover. Effective interventions are vital to overcome nurse burnout and its consequences.
objectiveThis systematic review explored and analyzed the effectiveness of person-directed psychoeducational interventions in reducing nurse burnout. MATERIALS AND
methodsA comprehensive search of five databases was conducted for studies published between 2014 and 2023, following PRISMA guidelines. Eligible studies that reported outcomes of psychoeducational interventions using validated evaluation tools were included. Data were extracted using standardized forms, and quality was assessed with Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tools. A thematic narrative synthesis was performed.
results27 studies met the inclusion criteria. Interventions including mindfulness-based interventions and cognitive-behavioral therapy, delivered either in combination or on their own, were shown to be effective in reducing nurses' burnout in 24 studies. However, the sustainability of these effects varied, with limited long-term follow-up data. Additionally, delivery formats (physical, digital, or combined), also influenced effectiveness, suggesting the importance of tailored interventions to specific contexts and needs of the target population.
conclusionsPsychoeducational interventions effectively reduce nurse burnout but need further investigation to ensure long-term sustainability. Future research should target diverse settings, incorporate objective and subjective outcome measures, and explore a broader range of interventions to strengthen evidence of burnout management strategies.
