Abstract(s)
BackgroundThe SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has brought multiple challenges for
health institutions and their professionals. The requirement of this disease forced nurses to confront
organizational and clinical challenges to maintain the quality standards of care they provide. These
requirements may have contributed to increased burnout symptoms. This study aims to map the scientific evidence related to nurses’ burnout in intensive care units. Methods: A scoping review will be
conducted according to the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology. Relevant databases will be used as
well as grey literature, where the following words will be used: burnout, nurses, intensive care units
and SARS-CoV-2. Results: This scoping review will include all types of studies—quantitative, qualitative and mixed—and all types of reviews that focus on the objective of this review. Conclusions: It
is vital to determine the impact of the burnout caused by the pandemic of SARS-CoV-2 to assess
amending measures of risk and protection factors. This will help in the implementation of guidelines
according to the available evidence. Additionally, this will help to improve the skills of these professionals as well as to reduce their emotional and physical exhaustion. This protocol is registered with
the Open Science Framework.
