The impact of labor conditions on health conditions of diagnostic nurses

The article presents the analysis of the influence of specific professional activities of nurses on their health, quality and productivity when conducting diagnostic testing of patients. We studied the activities and structure of time expenditures of nurses when performing the medical diagnostic testing of patients under their specific operating conditions. The incidence and severity of clinical and functional disorders in nurses that result in reduced physical functioning, emotional state and quality of their professional activity, were studied. Using a dedicated questionnaire (“Professional Burnout (MBI)”), the severity and prevalence of the components of the emotional burnout syndrome was studied. Organizational and preventive measures to optimize their working conditions have been proposed. The developed method of integral evaluation of the performance quality and efficiency has been presented, as well we the process approach model of professional activities of nurses engaged in diagnostic testing of patients.
