Therefore, understanding the prevalence of WPV and its association with PTSD among nurses may be important for developing effective workplace safety and support.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This paper examined the prevalence of WPV and PTSD among nurses in Germany and analyses the association between them.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among nurses across all clinical settings in Germany (May\u2013June 2024).

Non-physical violence was more prevalent than physical violence. Suspected PTSD was found among 8.5% of the participants. PTSD symptoms were significantly higher among participants exposed to WPV (OR 3.378; 95% CI: 2.096; 5.445). Availability of employer-provided support following WPV incidents was found to decrease suspected PTSD with an odds ratio of 0.122 (95% CI: 0.031; 0.483).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In order to lessen the PTSD effects of WPV, present findings emphasise the necessity of reporting mechanisms, employer assistance, and targeted interventions.
