Investigation of the relationship of psychological resilience levels of ıntensive care nurses with their attitudes and behaviors towards end-of-life care: a cross-sectional study.

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
purposeThe present study was conducted to examine the relationship between intensive care nurses' attitudes towards end-of-life care and their psychological resilience.
methodThis correlational study was conducted between November 2023 and March 2023 with a total of 132 nurses working in the intensive care units of a university hospital.
resultsThe mean psychological resilience level of the participants was found to be moderate, and their attitudes and behaviors toward end-of-life care were also at a moderate level. The study findings indicated that married nurses demonstrated higher levels of psychological resilience, while single nurses exhibited higher scores in both the total score for end-of-life care and the care behavior subscale. It was observed that nurses holding a bachelor's or master's degree had higher care behavior scores compared to those who a non-degree nurses (p < 0.05, Bonferroni correction applied). No significant difference was found in the comparisons between associate degree graduates and other groups. The analysis further revealed that nurses with five or more years of experience demonstrated lower care behavior scores. Nurses who had worked in intensive care for at least four years demonstrated lower care behavior scores. However, the study did not reveal a statistically significant relationship between the participants' psychological resilience scores and their attitudes, care behaviors, or total scale scores.
conclusionIn line with these results, it can be posited that multiple factors may influence the relationship between intensive care nurses' psychological resilience and their attitudes toward end-of-life care. To enhance these attitudes, various training sessions, seminars, and program initiatives should be developed. Additionally, future studies should be conducted with larger sample groups to further explore this relationship. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
