Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between verbal abuse, professional quality of life, and job stress among emergency nurses and to identify the mediating effect of job stress on professional quality of life.
Methods: The participants were 121 emergency nurses working in general hospitals. The data were collected from December 1st, 2017 to February 1st, 2018. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and three-step mediated regression analysis.
Results: As a result of correlation analysis, verbal abuse job stress had significant negative correlations with the professional quality of life, whereas verbal abuse experience had a positive correlation with job stress. Job stress showed significant effects on verbal abuse experience and the professional quality of life, with the explanatory powers being 43% and 29%, respectively, indicating partial mediator effects in the relationship between the three variables.
Conclusion: Verbal abuse experience and job stress in emergency nurses could reduce the professional quality of life, and their relationship by manifested partial mediating effects. Therefore it is necessary to decrease verbal abuse experience and job stress to further improve the professional quality of life in emergency nurses.

PURPOSE This study was conducted to adapt the standardized evidence-based nursing protocol using the IPC (intermittent pneumatic compression) intervention to prevent venous thromboembolism in surgical patients. Further, an investigation was done to measure knowledge on prevention of venous thromboembolism, surrogate incidence of venous thromboembolism and to assess IPC compliance in the study patients compared with those in surgical patients who underwent IPC intervention due to previous clinical experience. METHODS An analysis was done of the nine modules suggested by National Evidence-based Healthcare Collaborating Agency (NECA) in the adaptation manual of the clinical practice guideline for protocol adaptation. A nonequivalent control group post test design as a quasi-experiment was used to verify the effect of the IPC protocol. RESULTS There was a significant difference in knowledge of prevention of venous thromboembolism, IPC application time after intervention and the number of IPC applications between the experimental group (n=50) using the IPC nursing protocol and the control group (n=49). However, the symptoms of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism were not observed in either the experimental group or the control group after the intervention. CONCLUSION Results confirm that the standardized IPC nursing protocol provides effective intervention to prevent venous thromboembolism in surgical patients.

PURPOSE This study was done to identify the effects of Type D personality on compassion fatigue, burnout, compassion satisfaction, and job stress in clinical nurses. METHODS A descriptive cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected from a convenience sample of 172 clinical nurses working in two tertiary hospitals. The structured questionnaires included Type D personality scale, compassion fatigue, burnout, compassion satisfaction, and job stress scales. RESULTS About 79.7% of participants were classified as Type D personality group. The Type D personality was not related to general characteristics of clinical nurses. The Type D personality group showed statistically significant higher compassion fatigue, burnout, and job stress and lower compassion satisfaction compared to the non-Type D personality group. In addition, compassion fatigue and burnout were positively correlated with job stress and compassion fatigue was positively correlated with burnout. However, compassion satisfaction was negatively correlated with burnout. CONCLUSION As the prevalence of Type D personality is high in clinical nurses, it is necessary to assess stress-related personality. In addition, management for the nurse with Type D personality is required to alleviate compassion fatigue, burnout, and job stress and to improve compassion satisfaction.
