This study was designed to determine the current level of stress and its physical manifestations in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) and student registered nurse anesthetists. It also looked at coping mechanisms individuals commonly employ to combat the effects of stress. The study used data collected between February and May 2008 using a Stress and Burnout Survey on an online survey tool (SurveyMonkey). The fiscal year 2008 president of the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists, Wanda Wilson, CRNA, PhD, distributed a link to this survey in 2 electronic requests to approximately 28,000 nurse anesthesia providers. The response rate was 26.9% (N = 7,537). Based on responses and comments, recommendations can be made for future wellness interventions for the Association and for individuals. |
