Abstract Objective The frequency of alarms generated by monitors and other electro-medical devices is undeniably valuable but can simultaneously escalate the workload for healthcare professionals, potentially subjecting intensive care unit nurses to alarm fatigue. The aim of this study is to investigate alarm fatigue and stress levels among critical care nursing personnel. Additionally, the study aims to assess predictors for both alarm fatigue and perceived stress. Methodology : A descriptive cross-sectional study recruited 187 Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurses from hospitals located in the northern and central regions of the West Bank, Palestine. Data were gathered through online surveys due to logistic concerns using the Alarm Fatigue Scale and the Perceived Stress Scale. The research was conducted between November 2023 and January 2024. Results The mean overall alarm fatigue score was 23.36 (SD = 5.57) out of 44. The study showed that 62.6% of the participating ICU nurses experience average to high degree of alarm fatigue, while 69.5% experience average to high levels of perceived stress. A significant positive Pearson correlation was found between stress and alarm fatigue (0.40, P |
