This is a major health problem with serious adverse consequences not only for nurses but also for patients and healthcare systems. OBJECTIVE: To assess burnout and its associated factors in nurses who worked in teaching hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic in Iran. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on nurses of two COVID-19 referral hospitals in Tehran, Iran. Data were collected using the sociodemographic form and Maslach burnout inventory-human service survey (MBI-HSS) questionnaire. Data were evaluated using SPSS software version 26. RESULTS: A total of 264 participants, 52.7% (n\u200a=\u200a139) were males and the mean of them age was 34.41\u00b19.71 years. Almost 50% of nurses experienced burnout, in each dimension. Emotional exhaustion was associated significantly with job retention intention (P\u200a=\u200a0.01) and depersonalization was significantly associated with gender (P\u200a=\u200a0.02), age (P\u200a=\u200a0.01), educational level (P\u200a=\u200a0.004), work shifts (P\u200a=\u200a0.006), and job retention intention (P\u200a=\u200a0.02). In addition, personal accomplishment score was significantly associated with age (P\u200a=\u200a0.002), marital status (P\u200a=\u200a0.03), educational level (P\u200a=\u200a0.03), work shift (P\u200a=\u200a0.04) and job retention intention (P\u200a=\u200a0.01). CONCLUSION: The burnout rate in the COVID-19 era is high among nurses associated with improper care. Psychosocial support is needed to improve mental well-being among health care workers during unpredictable conditions like pandemics.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/wor-220001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,29]],"date-time":"2023-09-29T11:09:32Z","timestamp":1695985772000},"page":"1049-1057","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Prevalence and predictors of burnout among nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic: A survey in teaching hospitals1"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"77","author":[{"given":"Mehdi","family":"Raei","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Research Center, Life Style Institute, Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohammad Amin","family":"Shahrbaf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohammad Mehdi","family":"Salaree","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Military Nursing, Nursing Faculty, Health Research Center, Life Style Institute, Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maryam","family":"Yaghoubi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Management Research Center, Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3054-1938","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Akram","family":"Parandeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Health, Nursing Faculty, Quran and Hadith Research Center, Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"559","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehaa832","article-title":"The right ventricle in COVID-19 patients","volume":"42","author":"Shahrbaf","year":"2021","journal-title":"Eur Heart J"},{"issue":"2","key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"taaa020","DOI":"10.1093\/jtm\/taaa020","article-title":"Isolation, quarantine, social distancing and community containment: pivotal role for old-style public health measures in the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak","volume":"27","author":"Wilder-Smith","year":"2020","journal-title":"Journal of Travel Medicine"},{"key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref4","first-page":"1","article-title":"Posttraumatic stress symptoms and attitude toward crisis mental health services among clinically stable patients with COVID-19 in China","volume":"2020","author":"Bo","journal-title":"Psychological Medicine"},{"issue":"18","key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6550","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17186550","article-title":"Mental health in frontline medical workers during the novel coronavirus disease epidemic in China: a comparison with the general population","volume":"17","author":"Liang","year":"2020","journal-title":"International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health"},{"issue":"5","key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1059","DOI":"10.5811\/westjem.2020.7.48684","article-title":"The impact of COVID-19 on healthcare worker wellness: A scoping review","volume":"21","author":"Shreffler","year":"2020","journal-title":"Western Journal of Emergency Medicine"},{"key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"67","DOI":"10.3233\/WOR-203253","article-title":"Research on the influence of the COVID-19 epidemic on work stress of returning workers in China: A study based on empirical analyses of industrial enterprises","volume":"67","author":"Yang","year":"2020","journal-title":"Work"},{"key":"10.3233\/WOR-220001_ref8","unstructured":"International Council of Nurses.
